Another reason that this sort of joke doesn't bite both ways is that Western women (this is a very general statement) are not as attached to their genitals as Western men are. For example, I wouldn't have much of a problem with being spayed if it could be done without increasing my risk for breast cancer or osteoporosis later in life, or changing my libido. A lot of women feel ambivalent even about their breasts because of the unwanted attention they attract (breast reduction surgery isn't unheard of even in women where the size of the girls isn't causing physical problems).
I'm certainly very fond of my genitals, but I did find the joke to be very funny.
I wonder how many men versus women found the joke offensive?
