Washington, Feb 25 : Women and young adults are more 'unfriendly' than men on social networks, a new study reveals. 

According to the report released by the Pew Research Center, two-thirds of Internet users are on social networking sites and a good number of them — 63 percent — have deleted "friends."

"Some 67 percent of women who maintain a profile say they have deleted people from their network, compared with 58 percent of men," ABC News quoted the Privacy Management on Social Media Sites report as stating.
