The majority of people, for the majority of time as we know it, have used the term woman to mean a person with a vagina. Only recently has this changed, and for the most part the people on these forums are accepting of this. That doesn't change the fact that when I say I like women, what I mean is I like women with vaginas, not women with penises.
Edit: You know what, we do have a word for this. It's called sex. I'm attracted to women (the sex and gender), but not women (if your sex is male but gender is female).
