Honestly I feel like I’m gonna get myself in trouble every time I use “female” at all. There isn’t really another adjective to use though. Saying “woman boxer” has a totally different meaning than “female boxer” for example. Oh well, I don’t really value the opinion of people who would fault me for stepping on linguistic bear trap anyway.

Female is fine. Females is very often used in a problematic way.
I have had negative experiences with people much more opinionated and much less discerning than you.

Female boxer when woman boxer walks in:

There’s “gal” or “lady”
Lady boxer is still someone who punches women…
Gal boxer and lady boxer both sound like it’s someone who hits them gals and ladies though?
On the other hand, since women usually fight other women, it strangely might fit? :)
