Lilith is in the Midrash.

As far as the Bible is concerned:

Eve and the Identity of Women Chapter 7: Eve and Lilith

The whole Website is a fascinating read on the Bible being used as justification for making women subservient. (I keep these little anti-apologetics Websites available in my stable of bookmarks)

My biblical studies were aborted when at age 10 I was uninvited to Methodist confirmation class. The contradictions made mah li’l budding brainz ache so I apparently asked too many questions to try to ease the cognitive dissonance. On the way out of the church where my parents had The Meeting with the minister, my dad patted me on the back and said “Good girl, I’m proud of you”. Took me a few years to realize he didn’t just say that to make me feel better.
