When I talked about Adam and Eve I mentioned that Adam is drawn to Eve more because of similarity than difference. This is important in the ongoing debate on homosexuality because some opponents will cite this very story as the basis for their opinion.

This argument completely misreads the logic of the text. Eve is a companion for Adam precisely because of their similarity. Their differences are inconsequential.
