Grammatically it depends on the context and I don’t see anything wrong with using female as they did there.

Hey so thanks for your analysis but im not actually commenting on OP's grammar. Every woman I know, myself included, does not appreciate being referred to as female vs woman. Given that OP posted in a community by and for women, i am informing OP that we do not like that term and giving them the term we prefer instead

First, respectfully, as a woman please don’t speak for me or anyone else just because we share ovaries. And second, the point I was trying to make was that grammatically that’s exactly how he should have worded himself. He didn’t say anything wrong. Context and grammar matter.

So glad you dont take issue with it! But if we’re going to nitpick grammar, I said “every woman I know” and the “we” that follows after is a reference to the women I know. Idk you and dont want to so I am not speaking for you!! Its not about you. Im telling OP about a preference many woman have and asking them to respect it if they are going to post in a community of women!
