'''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|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 [[sex|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. |

individuals who are [[AFAB|assigned female at birth]] (AFAB) are often raised with the expectation that they will identify as women, although not all AFAB individuals are women and not all women are AFAB. Identifying as a woman is often associated with a feminine [[gender expression]] and gender role, however not all women present femininely, and not all individuals who present femininely are women. |
