More on Punctuation, Women’s History Edition

A professor wrote this sentence on the board: “A woman without her man is nothing” and told the class to punctuate it properly.

The males in the class wrote, “A woman, without her man, is nothing.”

The females in the class wrote, “A woman: without her, man is nothing.”

Editor’s Note: Without m&m, comma is coma.

March is National Women’s History Month
