For those of you who didn't go to Wesleyan,
womyn is an alternative spelling for
woman that doesn't have a "man" in it. ("Hey-hey, ho-ho, this penis party's got to go!") Since
women is plural, I would have to say that
womyn is plural, too. Therefore,
womyns is not a word, and this is an apostrophe catastrophe.

Thanks to my friend Dinny for sending me this catastrophe from Vancouver!
