-noun

A casual slang term for a human female, usually but not always a youngish one. A "chick" could be 80 years old, but such usage is rare.

- adjective

1. Exhibiting feminine traits, or directed toward females.
2. Indicating a female person.

"Chick" is similar to "dude" or "guy" for males in that it is rather casual but completely devoid of judgment or derision. Unless spoken in a negative tone, offense only occurs when someone mistakenly believes the term to be derogatory.

Likely comes from British slang in which a female may be referred to as a "bird" (a chick being a baby bird), and likely evolved along with the slang term for a male, "cat," as cats chase birds.
-noun

-adjective

2. I seem to open up more to a chick psychologist.
