Even if it's true that she said it because she doesn't want to end up dead on a rock shelf, or play Eve to Jack's Adam, it seems to me that the other is still valid, or at least informs her character somewhat (though probably less than I'm having fun surmising). I mean, she didn't say, "I don't want to play Blue Lagoon," and she didn't say, I don't want to be "Lucy" (aka famous fossil remains). Of course, that could just be because she doesn't watch cheesy movies with incest (or want to be so blatant as to put that in his head if he wasn't thinking it), and/or pay attention to anthropological discoveries. Eve is a more accessible symbol.

Eve is a more accessible symbol.

Also, it was previously referenced, by Locke.

she doesn't watch cheesy movies with incest

There was incest in Blue Lagoon?! What did I miss? Oh, wait...were they supposed to be cousins? You'd think I'd know -- I watched that damn movie about thirty bazillion times when I was an adolescent.

I believe they were cousins, and though that's not incest in some countries, the odd looks they got when they were recovered implied that their rescuers considered it incest. (On edit: I think the viewers were intended to see it that way.)

Nora, I missed that. What did he say?

when Jack noted that one of the skeletons in the caves was a female, (after Kate initially discovered the skeletons, post-bee attack) Locke said something like, "our very own Adam and Eve."

Here's the bit about it from the TWOP recap:

Oh, I'd forgotten that. Thanks.

Devin Faraci's Lost analysis and speculation:

That's a great article, Barry! Best picture of Sawyer so far (he looks good without the sneer), and I really like what he says about Charlie being his favorite character. He makes the good point that, so far, Charlie has managed to weasel himself into almost every major plotpoint discussion/event that has happened. I think that's a sign that the writers really like the character, and are planning on involving him more than they had originally intended.

Considering that they've already customized the role for Dom Monaghan, it also reflects well on his acting skills. I really thought that he was the hobbit that would suffer the Mark Hamill career path, but he's showing real talent here (loved when he saw his guitar last week).

Thanks for the article link, Barry. I wanted to argue almost every point the guy made, and reached for my tin-foil hat during the attempt to set up the Claire-as-fertility-goddess/Messianic-Locke connection, but I suppose that is all part of making an interesting article.

I liked the idea of paired monsters. We'll just have to wait and see whether that is the direction the writers have gone.
