Certainly not! Adam had no choice either! God is incapable of unfairness and He is no respecter of persons and snows no partiality. The reason she was taken from Adam’s rib was so that he wouldn’t look down on her as an inferior but she would be equal. Look at it this way: Eve is the crown of God’s creation; the finishing touch and His final at. How do we know what He told Eve? God could have said that I know that man perfect for you! God is the perfect matchmaker and this was a marriage made in heaven for sure.
There was no favoritism nor sexism involved. If it had been the reverse or converse, Adam could’ve raised an objection by this standard. Eve was created in flawless beauty and I’m sure she had no complaints when she met Adam. When was his partner and equal and it wasn’t till she sinned that Adam was placed in a position as head of the family unit;—that was not God’s fault.
She didn’t belong to Adam as some kind of property but was equal in every way so that Adam could relate to her perfectly with fellowship and companionship? This was only possible because they were equals and complimented each other. Soli Deo Gloria!
