Here's something interesting.

InStyle Magazine and Sports Illustrated polled about 20,000 men and women to see what they really think about such things as Valentines day, skinny jeans and shopping. Other magazines have done guy vs gal polls before but this is pretty genius if you think about it. I mean, who better to really gauge the sexes than the ultimate fashion mag and a guy bible. Looking through the poll, I'm actually surprised at how often the sexes agree. I mean, come on, men are not from Mars and women are not from Venus. We're all from planet Earth. Thanks for proving that InStyle and Sports Illustrated.

We posted a sample of the results, but to see the full poll go to news.instyle.com.
