APAD:A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle
"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle" is a feminist slogan, humorously expressing the view that a woman can live her life perfectly well without a man.
"A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle" is often attributed to the American feminist and political activist Gloria Steinem, or to the American feminist and political activist Flo (Florynce) Kennedy, or to an anonymous author who painted the slogan on a wall at the University of Wisconsin in 1969 (who we might also assume would have been an American feminist and political activist).
