Your hypothesis for the "what-if" scenario is wrong, too. You have nothing but conjecture to try to "back up" what you claim. Stop wasting time on "what-if" scenarios. Time is short.
It's called "theological speculation", something you have no capacity for.

Ha ha.  This advice is coming from a supposed-male yenta who spends countless hours on this site (and probably other sites too) arguing with women he doesn't even know.

Yes, theologians engage in speculative theology all the time ... in order to help clarify and illustrate principles.

That's not the same as speculating on a "If Adam had not sinned..." scenario. He did sin, therefore, any speculation needs to follow from that fact.

Yeah, a waste of time when you can be spending it on applying the already revealed truths to man.

Speaking truth is not a waste of time.

Ecclesiasticus is canon. It's truth. Quit speculating on things that don't even matter, but are designed to continue the false notion of some intrinsic female innocence.

This OP, and many commenting on this thread, commit Begging The Question fallacy.

It ignores the fact that Adam would NOT have sinned, if Eve had not sinned first, weakened his nature and corrupted him to sin. 

Your fallacy is Eve remained without stain of sin, despite the fact she was the first person to disobey God and trust Satan.
