But it sounds like you're labeling a member of some other species or something. In professional and unknown context, you can't really go wrong with woman for anyone above drinking age. (It's the most polite and neutral possible, I'd say.) |

Probably true!
> can’t really go wrong
Hahaha. ha.
I really wish you were right, but the thing about ladies/women/girls/females/dames/womyn/gals/femmes is, being individuals, they have individual opinions on the matter. And being human, they just may have specific fears and wishes regarding their perception. So some girls hear “woman” as “old!” and some women hear “girl” as “object!” and so on and so forth.
Just as in anything else messy and human, there isn’t an easy answer.
