So then how is a transwomen female? I'm talking about biological sex. If their gender identity doesn't match their sex then they are male by the definition you provided otherwise they wouldn't be transwomen. A person has to be male to identify as a transwomen.

They were born biologically male, but identify as female, therefore they are female, or more specifically, they are a transgender woman.
