It is much deeper than that. And while it will insure survival of the species, it has a far greater significance than meets the eye. If you will bear with me for a moment, I will explain . . . Men are irresistibly drawn to women because that is the way that God designed it.
“EVE” is the crown of God’s creation.
If you read the creation narrative in the book of Genesis you will see that each new stage of creation is better than the previous one.
At first, things are formless and dark.
God begins to form His world like clay.
Light and dark.
Land and sea.
Earth and sky.
Stars and planets.
Plants and flowers.
Fish and fowl.
(You know the story) - Animals of every kind . . . and at last:
God creates MAN = the triumph of His handiwork! And it is to this creation ALONE that God says, “You are my very image, the icon of my likeness.”
Put in other words, “You are my T-Man, the embodiment of my power and strength, you are a reflection of My greatness!” Pretty cool, huh?
And yet . . .
There is one more finishing touch.
There is Eve.
Creation comes to its high point, it reaches its climax with her.
SHE is God’s finishing touch.
And all Adam can say is, WOW!!!"
(Isn’t that about all you can say when you see a woman of captivating beauty?)
ADAM is the glory of God; the highpoint of his creation. Adam bears the likeness of God in his fierce, wild, and passionate heart.

EVE is the glory of Man: the highpoint of humankind. Eve embodies the beauty and the mystery and the tender vulnerability of God.

They are two pieces reflecting a greater whole. They are images of the greatest Being and it is in relationship with each other that they best display who HE is.
Make sense?
