The Woes of Jean Schmidt and Tom Brinkman and a cake make for humorous fodder.  I wonder, honestly, if Brinkman would have made such a profoundly nasty joke right to Schmidt's face if she were a man.  Brinkman is a classic conservative, who likely views women as the weaker sex. His type would lash out at any woman trying to do what he considers a man's job, his job particularly.
Jean does need to get over it, but this little episode I think shows Brinkman to be a cutthroat politician, literally.  He goes for the kill, even at inane moments like cake cuttings.  His desire for political conflict is a dangerous one, and more evidence of why he is not fit for public office, expect maybe as dogcatcher or Sheriff.
