shame about p*rn use
i am a 21 year old woman and i have watched a lot of porn (for the first time i was like 12). not addicted or anything but i have watched a lot of amateur videos and yesterday i read an article about a woman who had non consensual intimate imagery of her shared on twitter and i have watched porn on twitter before so i am so scared that i may have seen something like that at some point. i have also watched some rougher porn related to kink and i am horrified that this makes me a bad person. i have had taboo sexual fantasies before which i know are common but combined with the porn it just feels like too much. most people who have obsessions related to things they’ve done obsess over things from ages ago, but i watched porn like three weeks ago, which makes me feel like this is who i am NOW. i am afraid that seeing porn when i was young changed how i think about sex forever. i cant stop thinking about it and i have therapy tomorrow so i will try to work through it there, but i am so terrified that everyone who shares my values would hate me if they knew, and i am lying when i say i am a feminist. i’m just so ashamed and i thought i was getting better about this theme but that article i read really made it come back.
