Billie Eilish, the popular singer, recently said watching porn from a very young age screwed her up mentally. She said she had (or has) sexual dysfunction because what she watched distorted her view of what sex is supposed to be. Hers was more along the lines of thinking bdsm was what is normal, not that porn made her think she was gay. 

People don't realize how much porn or anything overtly sexual distorts a child or young person's mind. Shoot, my husband was 40 years old (and a virgin when we married because he actually believed and lived his Christian belief in no sex before marriage) and he commented later that sex and even marriage in real life is not how it's portrayed in movies and television. I was like, no [BLEEP] man. Yes, he lived a bit of a sheltered life but it made me realize how much influence the "entertainment" world has on people. Specifically young kids still just trying to grow up.
