I think that is incorrect. I don't recall any mention that Hawa was created from a mans rib.
You're saying this and yet you live in the West

There is a saheeh hadeeth which was narrated by the two Shaykhs [al-Bukhaari and Muslim] in al-Saheehayn from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), from the hadeeth of Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Treat women kindly, for woman was created from a bent rib, and the most crooked part of the rib is the top part, so treat women kindly.”
The idea is if you apply force and try to 'straighten' it, the rib will snap.
