(Figurativly speaking) I mean, with all the stuff they say about her, naming her a demoness and a hag, I get it. Not saying I agree with any methods she might have about punishing them, but still. She wanted to be treated as Adam's equal, not his slave, and everyone decided to land her a place in Hell. And have you ever noticed that a story is always told in the "hero's" point of view? Think about that. Honestly, I can see why Lilith would want a little revenge on these people.

I do admit that she is fascinating.

Driver considers the Hebrew word (li·lith′) to derive from a root word denoting “every kind of twisting motion or twisted object,” even as the Hebrew word la′yil (or lai′lah), meaning “night,” suggests a “wrapping itself round or enfolding the earth.” Such derivation of li·lith′, he suggests, may likely point to the nightjar as both a nocturnal feeding bird and one noted for its rapid twisting and turning flight as it pursues moths, beetles, and other night-flying insects. As quoted by Driver, Tristram, the naturalist, described the nightjar as “becoming very active towards dusk, when they hawk about at great speed and with intricate turnings after their food.”—Palestine Exploration Quarterly, London, 1959, pp. 55, 56.

Basically story give a moral in main world of men...there no reason to live as a female. The illusion of love and equality never existed. How can a women only endure the suffering that a men gives if he cannot be a real adult and listen.
