My understanding is that female refers to the gender while woman refers specifically to an adult of the aforementioned gender. As in you wouldn’t call a 3 year girl a woman and you wouldn’t call a 90 year old woman a girl, as girl carries a diminutive connotation compared to the more apt term woman.

Sex.
Female and male refer to sex.
Sex is what is between your legs.
Woman and man refer to gender.
Gender is what’s between your ears.
OR male and female are adjectives and man and woman are nouns
The dictionary and the entirety of biological science disagree with you.
In any case, the main point in that there is a difference between gender and sex, and male and female refer to sex.
And I’m talking about linguistics, not biology
