How do I formally refer to a girl I do not respect(because she's a menace) who is late 40's early 50's? So the different terms have implications I don't care for it want to convey.

From the point of view of that girl you're a red flag anyway. But "a menace" works too.

It really is just an anti-trans thing.

I call women "femei"

Is it bad?

I'm not sure I like the idea of demonizing people just because of a word. Unless it's something as fucked as the n word, it might just be a matter of dialect. Many non-native English speakers I know use female as a replacement for woman. The intent is the more important thing. Sometimes the most well spoken man can also be sexist.
