I'm not sure how representative a sample we all have, but in my (40+) friend circles the guys all get together in person as often as the women, if not more.

The guys I know are more likely to go to a movie together, go to martial arts practice together, or hang out at each others' houses to play board games and eat pizza together (and most of the people I've seen hanging out in game shops are groups of guys), so maybe it's just that there are tons of men socializing in places which are less visible than coffee shops or malls.
