The fucked up thing about that is it was an intentional mistranslation for the sake of mysogyny. In the original bible, Eve was created from Adam's equal half but some cracker decided nah lets just use an outdated definition so that she came from a small fraction of Adam instead.
It's like how King James censored everything even remotely approaching critique of monarchy for his funny little hotel bible.
