What If The Shoe Was On The Other Foot?

So... This week one of the big stories is about the "copycat" crime of the severing of a man's penis. Eighteen years after Lorena Bobbitt's infamous crime of cutting of her husband, John's penis and throwing it out of her car window, a California woman has decided her husband "deserved" the same treatment, but her treatment was a bit more cruel. Catherine Kieu Becker cut off her husband's penis and threw it in the garbage disposal. Now, ladies, I know firsthand how painful it is to have a man cheat on you/do you wrong, however, cutting off, burning, shooting, or super gluing a man's hand to his penis is NOT a good form of  "punishment" or revenge unless you're willing to go to jail for it. I just think severing a man penis is one of the most cruel things you can do to a person. And it is interesting that people (especially women) are outraged when a man hits, is abusive towards or rapes a woman, but many women feel it is funny for a woman to damage a man's genitals. My question is what if the shoe was on the other foot? What if men decided to start cutting up women's vaginas? Would this still be funny or taken as a joke?
