People misspelling ‘woman’ annoys the hell out of me. It’s literally ‘man’ prefixed by ‘wo’. I don’t know what bizarre process could lead to using ‘women’ instead. And it’s nearly always these Andrew-Tate-loving pound shop alphas.

Nah, it’s not that deep–tons of men and women make this particular mistake (writing “women” when intending to use the singular “woman”) for some bizarre reason. I’ve observed this phenomenon for well over a decade. Notably, I’ve never really seen someone write “woman” when they mean “women”, only the other direction. And never with man/men at all. Very odd, specific error.
Maybe it’s a “should of”-type mistake, I can only guess. But what I know for sure is that it’s a very common mistake, and almost certainly unintentional.
I recall a particular time period in early-ish smartphone history when the stupid thing tried to correct every instance of woman in my emails to “roman” for some weird reason so that one might just be auto-correct gone stupid again.
This type of thing sometimes happens to me when I’m writing a comment on my phone. The using a wrong version of a word, not the rampant misogyny. Its usually from changing how I wanted to structure the sentence, like changing tense or deciding to make something singular or plural, and not noticing that I missed updating one of the words.

I feel like this image has more to be upset about than misnumbering the word woman.
That and “should of” should be punishable by getting your hand cut off.
Read: “head cut off” and agreed. Sry for that.
Their not the only ones who should be punished!
I’d rather stub my toe then see such simple mistakes
The difference is that one is singular and one is plural. “Theres a group of women” and “Theres a singlular woman”
People do often get the usage wrong but its not being misspelled.

It’s not, it’s a mistake I’ve seen plenty of normal people do, including women.
