I am female and I don't particularly care if I'm referred to a
woman or girl or lady.  

Amongst the women I know, ironically, it seems that the ones
who are screaming the loudest about such issues as "woman vs.
girl"  "he/she"    "chairperson/chairman"  etc. are the very
same ones who won't change a lite bulb, would have no idea
how to change a flat tire (and aren't interested in learning),
and seem to play the helpless female and yell "women's lib"
at the same time.   
 I'm not saying this is true of all females who speak out
 about women's issues, but it does seem true the the females
 I know.  I prefer to speak by my example to others, not
 just words.
