According to a report in the Daily Mail, men were found to be more sensible when it came to financial preparations for their respective night out, as well as acting more responsible when they're on the outing itself.
The research looked at the spending habits of stags and hens and found that when it came to saving and budgeting, 31% more men than women fell into the 'sensible' category.
Almost a third of males surveyed said they tended to pre-plan a budget and stuck to it. This compared to a fifth of women who said the same, while a sixth of men admitted that they felt stag parties had become too long, too expensive and too involved.
Despite not being the best at saving, 14% more women than men said they would decline an invite to a party if they felt it was too expensive, explaining they would be more likely to only attend the events of family and very close friends.
Men, on the other hand, said they would be more likely to attend certain parts of the celebrations if they couldn't afford the entire event.
When asked about their advanced planning, almost all men with a partner said that justifying the expense to their other half was a consideration.
Recent research found the cost of both stag and hen parties was soaring, with the average cost now reaching £153 and £157 respectively.
The study, which was carried out by Stag Company and Hen Heaven, found that spending had soared by more than 50% over the past five years,
In 2008, the average cost stag do was £91, while hens spent an average of £102 in 2008.
Chris Perrett from iLikeOffers.co.uk, who carried out the research, said: "This is the kind of careful organisation we would associate more with the female population, but clearly there's no accounting for the motivational power of stag dos.
"So sacred is the event that three quarters of male participants admitted to prioritising the stag over the wedding in terms of spending."
