Hi,

Can you please point out my mistakes in the following paragraph?

Man and woman are the part of the same society. In fact they together make the society. Man and woman are like the two wheels of the same vehicle. Unless there is a balance between them, no society can be valuable and they can’t achieve the goal of their life.

Men and women are a part of the same society. In fact, together they make the society. Men and women are like two wheels on the same axis. Unless they provide balance, a society cannot be valuable and the people within it can’t achieve their goals.

Thank you.

Please tell me why I should avoid the use of “man and woman” so that I don’t make a mistake next time. I have seen some examples of “man” in the Cambridge dictionary.

Why "people? Why not “they”?

Or -

A man and a woman are part of the same society. In fact they together make up society. They are like two wheels of the same vehicle. Unless there is a balance between them, no society can be viable and they can’t achieve the goals they have set themselves.

Untaught, you might be wondering why I changed this:
‘two wheels of the same vehicle’
Two wheeled vehicles (bicycles, motor cycles) tend to rely on the person for balance.
A two wheeled horse-drawn carriage is the only sort of ‘vehicle’ that I imagine would have balance from the wheels. Other vehicles require 3 or 4 wheels for balance.
