The translation sucks. Specifically ...
The Living Bible (TLB) is an English version of the Bible created by Kenneth N. Taylor and first published in 1971. Unlike most English language versions of the Bible, The Living Bible is a paraphrase. Taylor used the American Standard Version of 1901 as his base text.[1] [source]
At best, it's an ignorant joke. So, for example, a far more accurate translation would be that offered by Everett Fox:
So God created humankind in his image,
in the image of God did he create it,
male and female he created them.
Yeah, I don't know why he used maid. Maybe he thought it necessary to imply they were initially virgin for some reason.
