I think you've made your point well and generated a good discussion, though I wish there were more public media critics hopping on board with this kind of stuff. But if they can't even pick up on misogyny in Glee, then -- there's not much hope.
I think starstrider made a good point/clarified you well in saying that normally House gets a reaction from the team to inappropriate things like this, and reinforces the badness of what he's saying in the end, so that it's usually clear that all the characters object to the morally unsound/-ism things he jokes about. That being missing here is really -- terrifying. Sends the message, "Child abuse is not something we need to object to!"
