Is it normal to be turned on by acts in porn but not the people?

So I can watch ANY TYPE of porn and feel aroused, straight, lesbian, gay even I’ve seen transsexuals.. and I feel turned on, or it least I think I do. However, with males I find them physically attractive, and can imagine myself in the scenario with them and get turned on by EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM as well as they acts they perform looking at their dicks and how they talk etc..

But with females in lesbian porn I usually get turned on by the actual acts... (the kisses and foreplay) not by looking at their faces, vaginas, boobs.. Basically, the way that they perform acts that could be done by men and sometimes I would imagine that when watching it, but this porn is more centred on how the female feels. Lesbian porn was the first type of porn I watched accidentally and continued to for a few years and was turned on by it but then gravitated to male porn. I still identified as straight because I knew that I wasn’t turned on by women in general. I just want to know if anyone else relates to this LOL. I’m an 18 year old straight female that has never had sex and won’t until I get married.

I know that porn cannot change or dictate my sexuality, but because I’m overanalysing porn and what it means has made me anxious I’ve decided to stop watching it.

I’ve don’t think I’ll ever go back to it, it is merely fantasy and is very confusing for teenagers because rewires our brain to expect more than what reality can offer. I do not have the desire to sleep with, or experiment with women and I hope that if anyone is confused about sexuality just because of porn, I would say, you know who you are and who you’re attracted (crushes) to and that’s that 🤷🏾*♀️🤷🏾*♀️
yeah that's normal. loads of people watch porn of people who they aren't attracted to
