Lost in a W Ord

When writing my most recent blog post, I made an interesting discovery. The spellcheck options for “women's” were
  • omen's
  • woman's
  • w omen's
  • womenfolk's
  • women
  • dolmen's
  • moment's
  • womanize
  • verminous
                          Really? What, pray tell, is a W Omen? What wily words would wreak wrothful wounds? Would womenfolk win without weapons? Why war, when waltzing was wished? Weighty words work willingly,
             watching,
                          waiting,
                                      wearing wily witticisms. Without woman's ways, we'd wither. Wing west, wobbly warblers. Willful wagoners whittle waspishly. Wary? Wash with well-water waves. Wake wondering. Wander woodsy walks. Wink. Whispers will work.
Wow.

If anyone is unsure, yes "women's" is a word.  Whatever spellcheck.
