Co-Rummination amongst Co-Wives

As we all know women are social creatures and while I have observed this behavior before, a video this morning put a name to the observation. Which makes me curious if this is something that happens amongst all women circles to some extent, I know it goes up and down (Mothers and Daughters) and side to side (Sisters/Cousins) as well as can even play out amongst cheated on and cheated with (becoming friends and dropping the guy). In your experience is this something that plays out amongst Co-Wives as well, considering they become the new social circle? Is the hive mind inevitable?

The video is below.

I have never seen this behaviour in my life. I've never seen messages from my friends about men they're dating. I've never hassled a guy like that at all. I've never asked my friends approval on whether I should date someone or not. I've seem any of this behaviour in any of my friends either. I assume it happens, but don't think about it as 'all' women, or even 'most' women.

Interesting, my experience has been the opposite, My wife is one exception I can think of that doesn't fall under this pattern of the many women I have met, however she is often the exception on many things, but even she is not immune to the desire of sharing details and girl talk, her circle is just a lot smaller. The desire to share things with someone else is still there, just not maliciously. I am going to assume we are of a different age group, and I would say the behavior while it existed amongst friend groups when I was in school, most definitely escalated with the advent of social media, as the group size become whole the world, the behavior grew to match.
 
I would agree with the overall premise that women share things amongst ourselves. The texting thing I don't know about because I do not text.
 
I can't really agree. I share things that are mine to share, not things trusted to me. I didn't even do much sharing with my sisters, but they did seem to talk among themselves.
I never did as the video suggested and use someone interested in me as group entertainment.....never would!
 
The whole thing seems so artificial and contrived. I've never seen anything like it before this video, and I wouldn't have anything to do with a woman who acted like that. Drama queen's the lot of them.

The female friends I have constantly send screenshots of the guys who have matched with them on dating apps and drama about their dates to virtually everyone in their phone contacts. It's similar for male friends. Like, over the past 15 years or so, I have been sent hundreds, if not thousands, of screenshots of dating app/site messages, texts, photos, etc, wholly unsolicited from friends about their dating drama.

This is bog-standard "normal". There are even subreddits for it.
