No more porn?

When I first started masturbating I watched sex scenes to get off and then gradually moved on to classic, online porn. I have since explored most categories and developed my own preferences. However, I am now considering to stop watching porn. It’s not that I don’t enjoy it, it just seems like it has become a cheap way to get off in a short amount of time with a more detrimental cost afterwards. I feel like, as an inexperienced seventeen year old, my image of sex is being skewed by the extremes of porn (the body ideals, the objectification of and violence towards women etc.) and I often take this to heart. Therefore I am considering to cut porn out of my life while still continuing to masturbate. But I’m not sure yet and I am very curious to hear what you think.

Have you ever experienced something similar?
