Lilith

When God created Adam and Lilith something without precedent happened which changed the course of mankind forever...

Both were created equal and yet Adam let Lilith have as much power as him, unlike the course of events we know, Adam embraced Lilith's strength and autonomy. When she gives her opinion he listens to her and tries to find a common ground between them.

Centuries later their descendance live in a society in which gender ceased to be an issue and anyone can have a high position without any struggle due to their gender, for example the first born of the royal family will be crowned when their parents will pass away no matter if the child is a girl or a boy; any of the two parents can be a stay-at-home parent to take care of the children while the other work. Gender roles don't even exist in this reality.

The knowledge about the reproductive organs is really advanced and there's even days off for those who menstruate if the pain can't be handled.

Same-sex love is seen as good as the heterosexual love. If a child is not wanted or not viable the struggle of abortion won't even exist, there is no judgment about the sexual orientation or what you do to your body.

All of this is what Lilith wanted when she was fighting Adam, all she ever wanted was to be his equal while he was playing deaf with her but what did Adam wanted? What about God? Did He plan that men will overpower women?
