    I had to repost this because the other one was locked or something? I don’t know why but no one viewed it after 5 days.. Anyway.. I remember seeing a reply to a post that stated "porn can fuck up your attractions". They recommended to lay off the porn for at least a month and test your arousal through fantasy. I have found this to be true to an extent.. before I watched nothing but gay porn and my fantasies MOSTLY were homo-erotic with still some straight fantasies.. like very few.. The result of me refraining from porn kind of made the heterosexual fantasies a bit more frequent, and my arousal was slightly stronger towards it. My same sex fantasies to my opposite sex are almost balanced/ thought about equally. Is this normal or just sexual fluidity ??

    This seems pretty normal and could be from refraining from porn. If you're watching mostly gay porn then it makes sense most of your fantasies would be homoerotic. And then when you stopped watching porn your arousal balanced out. I wouldn't say porn is fucking up your attraction but rather that watching a ton of homoerotic stimulus while masturbating is causing your fantasies to be predominantly homoerotic. I mean if you're watching it alot it'd make sense you're fantasising and thinking about it alot. But also of people experience shitfs and fluidity in their attractions and arousals. So I mean it could be that. Either way it's normal and you seem attracted to both genders. Just maybe not necessarily to the same extent.
