I can't address the issues you raise regarding why women do the things they do, but I can provide some insight as to why men need time together without having women along.
As far as men doing things with other men, and excluding women, it allows us to have fun without worrying about offending the women in our lives.
Although some men could care less if they offend their female partner or female friends, the majority still have the natural instinct and social awareness to behave and act appropriate in the presence of a woman, whether it is someone in our own lives, or a friends girlfriend, sister, etc.
When it’s just a group of guys together, we can act like idiots, do stupid things, be more aggressive, flirt with other women we run into, get into fights, and in general enjoy making fools of ourselves without having to worry about the consequences of a woman telling us how immature our behavior is.
As far as women gossiping, needing a man along, and interfering in other people’s life, that’s something men can complain about when we’re alone together. We don’t ask each other why women do it, and we really don't want to know why, we just complain about it and know we will get the support of our buddies without having to worry about offending our female partners, or get into a debate with them about it.
Men need time alone with their buddies to act like men, or boys, as the case may be. Regardless of changes in our society, this is the way it has been, and will continue to be.

There are many women who do not feel the need for constant male company. There are also many women who don't participate in much gossip. Then again, many women fall into the social ideals of 'womanhood' - cattiness, dependance upon males, etc. It's a social thing. Just start hanging out with new women - the feminist crowd would probably best suit you and help you out with your stereotyping problem - and move on.

Even though the women's movement has been in high gear for over 30 years, women still define themselves through men. And men define themselves according to the alpha male in the group. Few people take the time to get to know themselves; they're too busy gossiping about others.

I can see where you are coming from.
I think females create problems for themselves honestly, I never got the whole "gender tension" thing until I started hanging out with "girly girls" the ones who feel justified by having a male on thier side.
It gets annoying, you cannot have a conversation with a male without hearing of even feeling the "are they together" bull. It gets QUITE annoying.
But know that if you are confident by yourself or just having fun with girls, then you are light years ahead of the females you described. Some of them will bring themselves down because of the "men lust" they have.

I think it goes back to the basic anthropological scenario where women are the 'protected' and need the presence of a male for defense. Maybe this will change as the centuries go by and society evolves.

That is the way the Female psyche is made. Both the genders need each other for normal social activities and biological purpose. But, if you look up in Nature, you find that females seek male company only for the limited purpose of procreation and manage themselves and their young ones admirably well even in those species where continued male support is not available, for whatever reason.

Some people have not learned to be content on their own, so they assume that having a man in their life will make them happy.

The majority as in white women, or *the* majority of women? Your question is a little vague.

Because we are smarter, funnier and all around more fun to be hanging around with than other women that you are in silent competition with.
