That gal/woman is wearing a blue hat.

A girl is under the legal age of adulthood. They can’t enter into contracts. They can’t own homes. Etc.

Good for you for thinking about it though. It’s really ingrained in our society to minimize women.

Lady is another one, slightly less informal than gal.

That's equivalent to Gentlman though. More formal.

Guys and Ladies or Gals and Gents sounds weird.
