Who is it that treats female violence against men as a joke, when it happens to other men?

You're kidding right?

Sharon Osbourne joked on the national television show 'The Talk' about Catherine Kieu castrating her husband and throwing his penis in the garbage disposal unit. The other women laughed at, along with the women in the audience. Sharon Osbourne even laughed at it days later when she was forced to apologize by the network.

Ironically it was co-host Sarah Gilbert, a lesbian, who didn't laugh either time and called Sharon out on it.

Imagine the outrage, the protesting in the streets, the storming of the television studios if a man had made the same comment.

No I'm not. I'm aware that some (actually a lot of) women joke about violence against men, but how many times do you see men laugh at other men who are assaulted by women?

That's the problem. Men won't become outraged enough to do anything about it. Men should be in the streets making that exact point. However, one look at whoever it is they want to stick it into, and they cower into the background, even when their own sons are the victims.

You keep bringing up these biases, but I'm not saying the biases you bring up aren't real. What I'm saying is that men are either pushing them against other men to gain favor with whomever their target is, or at best just hanging their heads when it goes on around them. That will have to change before any of these biases are fixed.
