The exact details of the list are not important. Please simplify your code
to something easier to handle than this:

For your testing, try this first:
inlist = ['Female 1', 'male 1', 'Male 2', 'ladies 2']
When you have your code working with the simple test data, then you can go
on with the more complicated real data.

Why are you using a while loop? I don't understand where this comes from. So
many beginners keep doing things the hard way, using a while loop.
Iterate over the list like this:
for item in inlist:
item = item.lower()
if "female" in item or "ladies" in item:
print("Female")
elif "man" in item or "male" in item:
print("Male")

Your code skips that last item because the second-last item doesn't have the
word "watch" in it, so the loop never advances and it just loops forever.
But really, the code you show us is not the code you are actually using. Why
do you show us something different from what you actually use?
I know that the code you show cannot possibly be the code you are using,
because the code you show fails. If you ran this code, it would raise
TypeError.
