Did Eve have a choice in Adam ruling over her?

Did she have a choice in her increased toil and pain? No, because God said that such is what he himself would do.

Was her desire for her husband a choice? No, because it was her desire for him. She could not choose to desire him or not desire him. She just did desire him.

Did she have a choice in Adam ruling over her? In other words was there anyway that she could stop him from ruling over her when in fact God said that Adam would do so? We know it was Adam’s own will to rule over her since God did not give him rule over her, and God did not give him the choice to rule over her or not to rule over her. So it was his own will, not God’s. We also know that God allowed him to rule over her like he allowed him to eat from the TOKOGAE, but did Eve have a choice in letting Adam rule over her? That is the question! Was there anyway that she could have stopped him from ruling over her (if she wanted to) WHEN in fact God said that Adam would do so?
