sure, voicing those thoughts without practicing them is not the problem.
but (to come closer to the original topic) at least abusing female
humans as sex objects and using the photographs as exciter is about
practicing the thoughts. and please don't tell me that just providing
them is not the same as using them: they are only provided to be used
this way!

ok replace violent for sexist in this case.

again, the majority of thoughts (that are considered important enough to
be archived by someone) are not there to be voiced and forgotten, but to
be voiced and practiced, and at this point the problem becomes more
complex than "voicing ideas does not limit other people's freedom".
