Episode The bar scene in S6E13 scared me

I’ve always liked Booth, but S6E13 at the bar was the first time he scared me.
He asks what’s wrong with women, not what’s wrong with him. A woman in that position would have turned it inward. Framing it as a problem with the entire gender felt like a very male move.
Some people call it a great scene, but watching him that angry, I’d be looking for the exit. And if that had happened in a private room instead of a bar, it would have been genuinely frightening.
I couldn’t read Brennan either. Was she scared, or sympathetic? I asked my husband and he didn’t really see what I meant, so I’m curious how others here read it.
