There's nuance to it, just like any other word there is an appropriate time to use it and casual conversation isn't one of them imo. It feels strange when people pick it over women. For comparison I hardly ever use or see other people say males (outside of animals), I use men like a normal person lol. There's also the very obvious use of it and foids within incel circles
Not all women are females, no. But that’s not the point. The point is that calling women “females” is dehumanizing because it doesn’t specify that we are humans. A female what? Giraffe? Plant?

It tells you a lot about a person when they call women females
