This used to be a stupid question to ask, now nobody can provide a clear definition. How can you fight for women's rights if you don't know what a woman is? Give it your best shot; what is a woman?
(Saying "a woman is a woman" is not a definition)

A woman is a human being. They shouldnt be treated differently for their abilities. They also should definitely not be treated grossly. We are all humans and we all have feelings. Woman, men, and others are all the same.

Depends.
Woman can be used to define sex, a female human. Which is a valid definition.
Woman can be used to define gender, a cultural cathegory. What is a woman, what is femenine, is defined by sexist rules that are ment to lomit the freedom of people. Women must like a, b and c. And you like d or e you "are not a real woman". Right wing b******t that I have heard all my life.
Sadly nowadays part of the left has adapted those sexist rules. Now anybody who likes a b and c is a woman. Instead of saying "you can do and like what you want" and telling them "dont change who you are to fit societies sexism" they tell people "you dont fit the box that we made for men, so you must change your pronouns, name and body too meet our expectations". They have gone back to sexist stereotypes of "a b and c are for women".

Any adult who identifies as a woman.
Gender is a social construct anyways, so people can identify as whatever gender they want, regardless of their sex, which isn't even binary.
At birth, a doctor makes a guess as to what gender someone is based on their genitalia, but sometimes they're wrong. This is scientific fact and is non negotiable, regardless of how you think.

A woman is any adult who truly knows that they are a woman. Cis women are women and trans women are women and we should be fighting for the rights of them both.

A woman can be defined by gender or sex. Or both. Don't hide behind your ignorant, uneducated bigotry. Or your troll account made during pride month for the sole purpose of mocking a minority that already gets so much hate. There's children that use this site, and I only have to hope that no transgender child stumbles onto here. You should be ashamed, violating the first rule of morality. Not being empathetic. Facts don't care about your feelings. Here's my sources. Where's yours?

A woman is an adult female. A female does not have a penis. Let the downvotes begin!

I am biased on this one and by no means am I an expert on the subject of Gender Studies, my answer will need to be philosophical as opposed to purely factual. I feel that the term “woman”, like the term “man”, is a construct believed necessary for our minds to differentiate between male and female adult humans. It is a category of humanity the makes up nearly half of our earthly population. However, in my opinion, the term “woman” represents the feminine aspects of inborn characteristics of all humans. To be called a woman, or to call oneself a woman, is merely an attempt to identify with a flawed categorical system that we struggle to truly define in many cultures. Existentially, a woman is born a woman, however, this has nothing to do with gender and more to do with identity. A man who is born a woman has the right to correct her own physical nature to represent what she truly is inside. Every man has feminine aspects, as much as every woman has masculine aspects, sexual identity is a scale or spectrum, not a binary system. I am not a woman nor am I a man, I am both because I am human, just like everyone else, we should find better labels or ditch them entirely. This may not be an appropriate answer, but it is the best way I could put my thoughts into words.
