'menstruating person'
Mrs. George is not a "menstruating person." For that matter neither is D2.
What does that make them?

Good to say “menstruating person” rather than “women” when you really want to only refer to one who menstruates. Not all women menstruate (e.g., the post menopausal, the ones who have lost certain reproductive organs due to illnesses or physical trauma, etc.).
