first woman

Genesis garden dweller

First woman designates a female who achieves something before any other woman has.

The phrase typically marks breakthroughs in fields historically dominated by men: She was the first woman to summit Everest, the first woman elected to Congress.

The construction emphasizes gender as the distinguishing category—being first among women rather than first overall.
