Female (also known as Woman, Lady, Chick, Gal, Dudette, or Girl (diminutive)) is a gender which is part of the Western gender binary. It is often associated with femininity and a connection to girlhood or femininity (as defined in one's society). It includes cisgender, transgender, genderqueer and non-binary women. Some non-binary individuals also may have a partial connection to being a woman or femininity, in which case they may identify as a non-binary woman, woman-aligned, feingender, and/or fiaspec.

Woman is a term used for adults, while girl is used for children and teenagers. Gal is used as a casual word for women, typically younger women. Female is also sometimes used as a synonym for woman, however "female" can also be used to denote sexual traits, so typically considered overly clinical for most cases. "Female" can sometimes be used to exclude transfeminine people or reduce women to their genitalia. The word wifgender was created to encompass all the various words for womanhood.
