Do women yearn for female friendships too in their 20’s?

Am in my early 20’s ( F) & always longed to have a circle of trust that revolves around girls/ women. I have seen in movies that female friendships are the strongest but never experienced it so far. Particularly cause of the environment that I was in , mostly being surrounded by guys. I have brothers from another mothers fr but at times I often wonder does gender make a difference or is it a hoax bloated to prevent - ek ldka or ldki kbhi dost nahi ho skte? I would like to know if there are women around who believe in that kind of friendship & would love to hangout and talk about, right from geopolitics to boys .
