Men use them interchangebly for the most part because we are neanderthals .
A lady can be described as having a certain amount of decorum and a quiet inner stregnth . A lady is the yang to the b*tch's yin(or is that vice versa?) The comon mistake many women think is that being a lady has no power nor any influence .That is wrong on so many levels .
A woman may be just a woman (nothing wrong with that just like a man is just a man ) or woman can be a lady or a b*tch or somewhere in between .
Girls .................ladies and women dont get upset with the term girls .It is usaly a term of endearment .Just like using the word boys can be if used correctly .( those are our boys in Iraq)

usually you use LADY as a title and WOMAN as a human being, a female, more in a general sense. For example: "Women love buying lots of shoes". As for Lady, you would say: "Who is that lady out there"? - Lady Diana is a good example of Lady used as a title. When you don't know the name of a female person you address her as a Lady not as a Woman. For example: "Who is that lady who is wearing that red coat?" Never, ever say: "Who is that woman wearing that red coat?" That wouldn't sound elegant or nice. Hope it helps.
