I know from past experiences porn can really **** with your head and the way you think, you should cut the amount you watch or stop if you can.

There are many different sexualities/preferences in this world and yours is not one you should feel ashamed of. Whether you want to continue watching porn or not is completely your decision. You could take a break or completely stop watching porn if you don't like how watching it makes you feel.

It is true that watching porn excessively can lead to problems (e.g. watching porn in inappropriate places or at inappropriate times could indicate a deeper problem) such as porn dependency, unrealistic body expectations, and sexual addiction. It likely won't affect your sexual performance unless you find you can only get aroused watching porn. Finding a sexual partner who understands you and who you can trust is important.

If you're really worried, you may wish to talk to a specialist such as a psychologist who specialises in relationship/sex therapy. In terms of what you should do, I think you should work on understanding and accepting yourself. Your sexuality is just one part of who you are as a person but rejecting your own sexuality is like rejecting yourself.
