"Why," she said at last, "is woman inferior in conception?
For although she was created second, she was made from Adam's side, while Adam was made from common clay.

As for will, woman should be considered "superior" to man for Eve ate of the apple for love of knowledge and learning, but Adam ate of it merely because she asked him"
