Default Re: woman, they

Excellent answer. Thank you. But a friend of mine, non-native, told me once we could say

-Woman (not women) is the most intelligent creature in the world.

without using the before woman either. Do you think this friend of mine is wrong, or is the sentence she suggested a special use?(=uncountable use of woman)
