女ですよ。can hardly be uttered without context, and is a very confusing sentence for beginners.
Depending on the context, 女ですよ。could perhaps be translated into some of these:
男と女でどちらのほうがXか知っていますか?女ですよ。- Do you know which sex is more X? Females. (btw please always be sceptical about the scientificality of statements that follow this format)
ニヤニヤしているから分かります。女ですよ。- I can tell by the smirk. There's a woman he's into.
あなたは女ですか?ー女ですよ。- Are you a woman? -Yes, I am.
If I were to translate "I am a woman, you know." I would take わたしが女だということを分かっていますか。- (literally) Are you aware that I am a woman?

The animations throw me sometimes. The guy with heavy mustache telling me he's a woman, the little boy telling me he got divorced last month, the grandma telling me she's 17 years old...
