I think this song to be about the negative portrait of women in popular religions. For example, in Islam a woman is "unclean" during menstruation. "your brothers all remain blameless" is about the image of woman as the origin of [original] sin (Adam and Eve).

The "Cursive Eve" is a play on words. On one hand, it refers to the psychological maltreatment of women in religion (The CURSE OF EVE) and on the other hand "Cursive" refers to the joining of man and woman side by side as equals in the eyes of the narrator.
