Deborah deserves some credit, but she wasn't married.
I see that you have all forgotten a pertinent scripture
Genesis 3:16: Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
"rule over thee"

I don't intend to sound snide when I say this is one of the reasons I left Christianity. That so many people spend so much time debating this made me wonder what exactly Christ is about.
Of course, there were other reasons, like people believing the infallibility or divinity of a text over which few agree.
And anyone or any religion who forbids a gender from something only by appeal to religion doesn't hold water for me.

:sarcastic And the ground was cursed in the next verse too: "Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life."
But as far as I can tell, God never instructed anyone not to improve that condition. We have tractors and irrigation and pesticides.
Why wouldn't we be able to do that with other curses?
the bible is about the Truth, not christianity?
Can you be more specific about what it is that you misunderstood
And please note, the Lord dwells not in churches

Also, the snake was cursed more than any other animal.
But what does that mean?
The curses make no sense.
Lets read the verse together and (actually) see why Adam was cursed
Genesis 3:17: And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
do you see it?

do you see it?
Yes. I see a mythological explanation of life. A mythology that makes sense only to those who need it to.

On track? It's a curse listed right before the others. It's relevant because you quote a curse in context as authority for an application today.
How do other curses not apply to us, but the one you like does? Especially when they are in the same chapter in the same context.

I'm not sure what you're asking me...

In reference to marriage and submission.
Wait... it seems to me that you're saying that all of humanity's misfortunes are a consequence of man listening to woman... the implication being that men today should know not to listen to women.Lets read the verse together and (actually) see why Adam was cursed
Genesis 3:17: And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

Is that what you're driving at?
