    You tell me! You asked, so it seems like you have a different definition. Also I’m not the op you originally asked, I’m not going to answer for them, but seems they were very clear.

    Whether they mean the same and how society accepts definitions of words are completely different. Do you call your mom a female or a woman? Because female would be insulting in my opinion.

    In a more scientific environment absolutely female and woman could mean exactly the same and have no difference. But in society if you call a woman a female I would not care if she slapped the shit out of you.
