In my most humorless early twenties, all females were "women," until I worked with some of women in their 70s and 80s and they called each other 'girls' if they were close and 'ladies' if they were social, but not so close. The crowd of them had been everywhere and done everything and worked for their rights and to correct society's wrongs, and best of all they got me through my humorless phase.

RLAG doesn't stike any nerve for me.
