Hi, Clive:

A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.


I did learn this saying a couple of weeks ago.
I think the meaning of this sentence is opposite to "A woman without a man is nothing."

Fish live in the water and swim, needing no bicycle.
So it is concluded that women do not need men.

[No offense]

Actually, the sentence is "A woman with her man is nothing."

And the alternate way to punctuate is A woman: Without her, man is nothing!

It doesn't work to show the two way that it can be read if you use "a" instead of "her."
