Question: Was Phasma really a woman?

I mean, she has a female actress who refers to Phasma as female, so yes:

The entire point of the character was to have a "female Vader" for toys, yes

It was supposed to be a Bobba Fett style character (not Vader). Originally in the script it was a minor character written for a guy, but then they realized that they had no relevant female villains at all in TFA, and it was a pretty easy character to re-cast with Gwendoline Christie.

By and large it's been the fans who've been like "wait, if you're going to have a female villain, we want to hear more about her, and she should have more than 60 seconds of screen time."
