To be honest, I think the term is just annoying (at least to me) and not necessarily stupid or disrespectful.
I explained how sometimes I use female as a generic term when I don't know if I should say woman, girl, or lady. The term female describes all females, so sometimes it's easier to just say female.
Girls are children and women are adults. Lady is a synonym for woman, generally an older high-class or high-status woman. The dictionary is your friend.

But my age is a grey area where they could be called girls or women. Legally, I'm an adult. But a lot of people view me as a kid.
I only use female when the female is slightly older than me and I don't know whether or not to call her a chick, girl, lady, or woman.
