Was the "Adam" character created with a penis? If so what was he supposed to do with it before the "God" character thought up the "Eve" character?
If he wasn't born with one did the "God" character give him one in exchange for a rib?

You are quite a character. Sorry I couldnt resist.
I have heard that The very words male and female in Hebrew imply the answer. I have heard Male and female in Hebrew have connotations of piercer and pierced so, yes, Adam was created male, Eve was made out of Adam's wounded side. This Im sticking with.
As far as the Hebrew words male and female being piercer and pierced, Suzanne has corrected me and I need to look into this, it may not be accurate. I see a few references but ya cant believe everything you hear and I need to check it sorry
Adam and Eve and sex are meant by design as a illustration and tiny glipse of the wonders of the relationship of God and the redeemed and just as there was one marriage in the garden, there is one marriage in heaven between Chirst and the bride of christ, the redeemed born out of Christs wounded side on the cross.
On another subject you raise, as far as the missing rib and does man have one less rib than women... this is on the list of bad arguments creationist should not use and a DVD by SARFATI on this subject available at www.answersingenesis.org

“Women have one more rib than men.”
AiG has long pointed out the fallacy of this statement, which seems to be more popular with dishonest skeptics who want to caricature creation. The removal of a rib would not affect the genetic instructions passed on to the offspring, just as a man who loses a finger wouldn’t have sons with nine fingers. Any skeptic who tries to discredit the Bible with this argument must be a closet Lamarckian, i.e., one who believes Lamarck’s thoroughly discredited idea of inheritance of acquired characteristics! Note also that Adam wouldn’t have had a permanent defect, because the rib is the one bone that can regrow if the surrounding membrane (periosteum) is left intact. See Regenerating ribs: Adam and that ‘missing’ rib

It just kinda grew out of evolution after God designed women that way. The body realized that it couldnt reach to the must-reach places and therefore....evolved.

I think so because they had children in natural ways. Only Adem and Havva was created.
Allah tought him whatever he needs to know. What is wrong with it?

I think he had it because he was created in God image
