In His infinite wisdom, God knew that Adam was darn too smart for his own good and would probably outsmart himself to extinction. So He created Eve, the epitome of beauty and brains. But Eve - although smarter than Adam - had the flair to know when - and how - to act dumb in order for her man to feel important. And so it goes................

In addition to man and woman having been made to complement each other physically, they were to complement each other through masculine and feminine qualities. (Genesis 2:18, 23, 24; Matthew 19:4, 5) Yet, views on sex have become twisted and distorted.
What is true masculinity, and what is true femininity? The World Book Encyclopedia states: “Most men and women differ from each other not only in anatomy, but in behavior and interests as well. Some of these differences are biologically determined. . . . But many nonanatomical differences appear to be based on sex roles that are learned by every individual. People are born male or female, but they learn to be masculine or feminine.” Our genetic makeup may account for many things, but the development of appropriate masculinity or femininity depends on our learning what God requires and on what we choose to pursue in life.
.Clearly, physical beauty, body shape, size, or strength do not of themselves impart acceptable masculinity or femininity. The angels that materialized were likely good-looking. And the Nephilim were big and muscular, but their mental attitude was twisted. The disobedient angels and their offspring filled the earth with sexual immorality and violence. Hence, Jehovah brought that world to an end. (Genesis 6:5-7) The Flood, though, did not do away with demonic influence, nor did it eliminate the results of Adam’s sin. An improper reflection of masculinity and femininity again surfaced after the Deluge, and there are examples in the Bible, both good and bad, that we can learn from.
.Ciao.

I am not bored. As a man named Adam, I have other things to obsess about other than women!!!
Now, on a more serious note, we need drama. Without women, there would be no drama on earth. Without women, there would be no reproduction. *self explanatory*

to be adams companion. God provided "an help meet for him" ...a helper corresponding to him....one who was fitted to be his companion, and who could be one with him in love and sympathy.
Eve was created from a rib taken from the side of adam, signifying that she was not to control him as the head, nor to be trampled under his feet as an inferior, but TO STAND BY HIS SIDE AS AN EQUAL, to be LOVED and PROTECTED by him.

MAMAb doesn't know her own bible.
Check the verses... they're wrong!
"Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. "
Later in Genesis 2, God creates man and woman separately, even tho he'd already done it in Gen 1.
Whatever!... it's all mythology anyway.

Genesis 1:18-25 tells us the answer:
And Jehovah God went on to say: “It is not good for the man to continue by himself. I am going to make a helper for him, as a complement of him.” 19 Now Jehovah God was forming from the ground every wild beast of the field and every flying creature of the heavens, and he began bringing them to the man to see what he would call each one; and whatever the man would call it, each living soul, that was its name. 20 So the man was calling the names of all the domestic animals and of the flying creatures of the heavens and of every wild beast of the field, but for man there was found no helper as a complement of him. 21 Hence Jehovah God had a deep sleep fall upon the man and, while he was sleeping, he took one of his ribs and then closed up the flesh over its place. 22 And Jehovah God proceeded to build the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman and to bring her to the man.
23 Then the man said:
“This is at last bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh.
This one will be called Woman,
Because from man this one was taken.”
24 That is why a man will leave his father and his mother and he must stick to his wife and they must become one flesh. 25 And both of them continued to be naked, the man and his wife, and yet they did not become ashamed.
