Hi Pinklight.
I can appreciate the very real and important issues you are raising, but I’ll respond with some questions for whenever you (or if anyone else) get some time.

1 Have you watched Cheryl’s DVD? Before Cheryl discovered the issue of the perfect tense in v14, did you believe that the “she” of v 15 had to be “the woman” of v14, and this was an insurmountable problem and so Cheryl’s exegesis on the DVD must be wrong? Do you now believe that this is so?
2 Just hypothetically, imagine that Cheryl has not yet realized about the perfect tense in v14, and no one has thought of the idea that “the woman” of v14 may not be Eve. Your only options are the “Eve representing women” view for v15, so that “she” in v15 matches “the woman” in v14, or Cheryl’s view from the DVD, which would you choose?
3 How do you explain Paul’s reasoning in v13,14 without referring to the deception of Eve?
Thanks Pinklight
