The snake (of the trouser variety) tempts Eve with the forbidden fruit (hanky panky) that she shares with Adam. The consequence of which is painful childbirth.

They’re even specifically stated to be naked for this situation.

    The problem with interpretation is that, if you can make a convincing argument about why something should be seen a specific way, youll have people see it that way. Same thing here. I agree that it’s a possible interpretation, but it also just depends on who you’re talking to. Point being others in the comments with wildly differing views, but with justifications that are equally as valid. Who knows what’s the right interpretation, your guess is as good as anyone’s.
