Then why only forbid Adama and NOT Eve? There are two Genesis stories. In neither one was Eve forbidden to eat of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.
AND YET, Christianity blames women for the sins of the world.
The Hebrew Mystics hid knowledge and kept it to themselves. It was a means of control. I don’t care how long you study. There are truths and then there is THE TRUTH.
Moses had his hands full trying to get stubborn people to understand why it was absolutely necessary to understand that without ONE, TRUE G-D, there could never be anything as elusive as freedom.
G-D gave man dominion over the beasts, not over each other.
Those who replace G-D with ANYthing have added a link in a mental chain that is hard to break. It is a weakness and yet another means of control and one step further away from TRUTH.
Abraham knew it. Moses knew it. The Romans knew it. Paul knew it. And Paul used it to help the Romans destroy the Jews.

Wrong, as your statement requires negating that Adam was the head of the wife, and thus the wife was commanded through him not to eat of the forbidden fruit.
And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. (Gn. 3:2,3)
As for your second statement, the N.T. does affirm that the women did break God’s law, but recognizes this as being due to deception, which is a basis for exclusion for female leadership over men, (1Tim 2) but Adam is recognized as being the more accountable and evil-affecting his posterity by his disobedience.
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. 15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. (Rom. 5)
