Funny, I touched on something similar in a piece I wrote about the film And God Created Woman. how women seemed to move strategically through social space long before the rules were spoken out loud. This idea that Eve was the first to really get it makes sense. Social reality was probably quietly built by women sensing and weaving bonds. Much later language came to give it a name.
I get a lot of Big If Trues, but there has been basically no pushback on the idea that women discovered the self. Radicals, centrists, left-wing, right-wing, all think it basically checks out. The one exception was a feminist angry with me for pushing "bioessentialism"
Andrew, I find your arguments very compelling. They provide a possible explanation for the fact that groups containing more women score higher on collective intelligence - https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1193147
Perhaps many women intuitively know these things but have the social intelligence not to mention them in front of men!

Interesting that group intelligence is average g + social intelligence. Makes sense!
Snake was the friend of women first; no wonder patriarchal religions hate him.
