Hi,

can you tell me if the following sentences are corrected? I like to know if I
need a comma in the second sentence.

1. It sniffed the air. OK
2. This is man business and you're a woman. It's not strictly necessary, but I'd use a comma.

Best wishes, Clive

This is men's business, and you're a woman.

In the second sentence, "man business" looks odd. I'd say either,

This is a man's business, and you're a woman.

or,

This is man men's business, and you're a woman.

PS. I'm very unlikely to say such a thing at all, but you know what I mean....
