I'm surprised Savina and others don't mention all the Venus figurines. These date to thirty thousand years on down to the Island of Malta's giant Venus figurine.

It's also a bit surprising that there's any women in the world who believe in Judeo-Christianity.
The Eve story is about women taking the fall for mankind. 1Timothy 2:12 - Paul is saying woman should not learn, because if you midrash the old testament(which is what the New Testament is; a midrash of the old testament and Greek platonism), Eve takes the fall for mankind; therefore, woman should shut up and not learn.
I remember pointing this out to a African American. You know what he said? He said, "but I use that on my wife!" Well, heaven forbid!
