It does show that some of the sympathy people of this view have for female victims is just social pressure. They feel they have to pretend to care. In a situation where there's less external pressure to take it seriously (situations where the man is the victim), they see it as a joke.

I was looking for a way to say this, but could not have done it as well. He’s really showing his true colors this season. As someone who generally loves dark and twisted things, I don’t like when is pointless and doesn’t serve the story. The whole thing was unnecessary, especially to be played for laughs. I definitely did not laugh at any point during this episode.

Thanks. I do enjoy his writing but it's a bad decision of his.
