The explanation is most likely incorrect though. A more obvious cause of this error is that the current working is the root directory (/
) and that they’re logged in as a non-root user, thus trying to create the file /woman
without sufficient permissions.
Technically he is also wrong about what touch does. The purpose of touch is to update the timestamp of a file and only if the file doesn't exist, the file gets created.

Doesn't work since the woman in his home has higher priveleges than him. ;)
sudo peg /usr/avglinuxuser -dom -untl_p_org
Or in other words, sudo touch woman
I believe they've got laws against that nowadays. Not that that stops many, but you know.
sudo prove --innocence
sudo win --courtcase
I would have guessed you don't have permissions on the directory to create the file.
Btw, sudo is fine for server administration but imo too big and troublesome for desktop use. There are tools with fewer than 150 lines of code doing what you use sudo for on desktop.
