Same here. As a girl, I was always surprised that the boys felt it was ok to be nasty and hurtful to me. Isn't there a code about that? I think most girls igrnored me or at least waited until I wasn't around to be mean. But every experience that stands out in my memories as a bad high school experience was because of boys (and not in the 'because a boy dumped me' way, more like in the 'because a boy smashed my head into a locker or tore my art project' way.)
There is a code, but unattractive women/girls don't count as women/girls to many people, I've discovered. ("All women are beautiful!", the flipside of which is... well, y'know.)
More likely and to the point, the kids who are brought up with chivalry/manners probably aren't the same louts who are shoving people around.
