I'm a-hearin' you on FM. Your description of "...because that's the word I use for 'people more like me'" makes a lot of sense. (OTOH, there must be some age component, because I think of [livejournal.com profile] m0usegrrl, for example, as a woman, whereas if not "friend" or "person", I would similarly use "girl" for you as you do for yourself and might for me.) I don't think I would use the word "woman" for you either, except in that general sense you mention that the plural "women" does include you.

It's weird how these applications of terms to people happen when we're not looking...
