PSA: "Women" is not singular

[Steve]

Woman - one

Women - more than one

Right: "Hillary Clinton is a woman"

Wrong: "Michael Jackson is a women"

Right: "The Ladies' Auxiliary is full of women"

Wrong: "The men's restroom is occupied by several woman"



That is all. Thank you.

the word "dog" is singular.

the word "dogs" is plural.

The movement is not about the rights of one woman, but all women.
