Ladies may be the fairer sex, but are they also the meaner sex?

The YouTube channel Whatever decided to conduct an experiment comparing how men and women reject members of the opposite sex who approach them on the street.

The results? Well, let's just say there's a reason the movie was called Mean Girls and not "Mean Boys." The women who were approached were just plain rude (one even drops and F-bomb!) while the men were definitely more gentle in letting down the woman who tried to pick them up.

This is hardly scientific, though. Having a complete stranger walk up to you on the sidewalk can be creepy and in case you didn't know it, it's a crazy world we live in. You can't really blame these women for wanting to hightail it out of there ASAP.

So, while the women were a little rougher, we can certainly imagine a scenario where the women are much more diplomatic and the men shoot down a woman with the kind of behavior that would make their mothers shudder in horror.
