I was going to respond to the original post privately, as my thoughts are 
off topic, but at this point, I think I need to do it publicly.

While pornography and its attendant portrayal of women, children, and even 
men as sex objects encourage all manner of perverse behaviors, I don't 
that think non-sexual abuse of women by men is one of them (it's not like 
readers of "Playgirl" are thought to be more inclined to commit violence 
against men than others).  Rather, the latter appears to be more related 
to cultural attitudes that glorify bullying and physical punishment of 
perceived slights as "manly", and despise appeals to reason and compassion 
as weak and effeminate; combined with a general contempt for women 
(beautiful or not) as weaklings and inferiors.  Thus, while removing 
sexually provacative pictures from collections of clip art *might* 
discourage perverse sexual behavior to a very modest extent, it is 
unlikely to reduce the number of wife-beaters.  Treating the latter and 
other bullies as the common criminals they are, and ceasing to make 
excuses for them (together with teaching boys from a young age to respect 
girls and women and protect them from violence) would do a lot more.
