“This is precisely the issue I have. Egalitarians argue that there is no creation order in Gen, then when we look at this passage in Corinthians the answer changes from’ no creation order’ to ‘so what’, it ‘means nothing’ using your own words. It is inconsistent, do you believe there is a creation order but it means nothing, or do you believe there is no creation order?”

I would like to be pointed to one word written by Paul in 1 Co 11 about Adam being created first and then Eve – “creation order”. All I can precisley read are words like “from” and “for” specificaly talking about “origin” not “order”. To think that Paul is talking about “order” is reading into the text because the words that would tell us he’s talking about “order” (which he knows how to write about as in 1 Tim 2) do not exist in the passage. I think the exact things and words that Pauls writes are important.
