Hmm, I agree with many comments here, I do tend to call females younger than me girls and boys as far as kids
and those older or my age as women but actually I address other 'women' as 'lady' or 'girl' in person depending on familairity/age/ etc etc and 'female' in reference.
Personally I think the term 'woman'/'women' is very relative. Physically females do mature earlier but mentally they might be girls for a longer time. You never know it until u reach that age. I am in my mid twenties now, but when I was a teenager I used to think those in mid twenties are oh-so-mature and womanly (even "eww! so old!"), and now that I am that age, I cant help thinking, I still need to grow up some more
...esp since I am posting in this forum with primarily teenagers around, no offense to anyone!!
