Well, things don't happen in a vacuum. You're female and I'm male. You're more upset than I am by what you saw in the episode. I can either assume you're being hysterical and overly emotional, or I re-examine my premises and figure out what I'm missing.
So no, I wouldn't say it requires me to refrain from making any kind of moral evaluation (nobody gets off that easy)--but like I said before, it does lead me to second-guess myself (which is extra work that isn't anybody responsibility but my own), and I don't think that's a bad thing.
And while I'm uncertain, it makes sense to me I shouldn't invest too much energy into a position that I might eventually decide to be anti-feminist.
