An interesting thought.  Was Adam created imperfect because he could
not continue his species?

The need to reproduce only comes into play when there is risk of
death.  Imagine if there was no death but animals and man could
reproduce - the numbers would grow exponentially for eternity, quickly
overwhelming the world.
The bible does not explicitly state that animals (or anything)
reproduced before the fall - and even in the case of man eve was
created to fulfil the need for companionship - not the need to
reproduce.  After all Adam and Eve had no children until after the
fall - suggesting that reproduction was not needed/possible until
after the fall - at which point God allowed it since it was now needed
to continue the species.
The first reference to offspring is in Genesis 2:16 which is after the
fall and is to say that childbearing is on it's way and it will hurt.

Through all this I can see nothing to suggest that Adam was created as
non-gender specific and there is no need for him to be so in order to
explain what occurs
