Excellent Observation Cheryl, I had always wondered why, as claimed by the scholars at CBMW, that if male federal headship was established by God prior to the fall, the woman is not commanded to leave her parents and cleave unto the man? As the text reads it’s the other way around. The text does not support a linear male hierarchy at all. If anything the text shows that this original beauty is based on matrilineal kinship. And incidentally? Despite all their Talmudic posturing (Rabinical tradition) about the filthiness of women, whether one is a Jew or not is determined by whether or not one’s mother’s bloodlines are Jewish.
