Is it normal for a man to dislike pornography?

I don't watch it, but whenever I tell friends that I don't, they would laugh it off as a "lie". Most of them are incredulous about me not being interested in pornography. I never understand why they think such way.

You are definitely not the only man out there who isn't into porn. There is absolutely nothing wrong with not liking it and you don't have to justify your choices and likes to anyone.

People think in such way because they don’t expect you to admit to doing sth as pleasurable as watching porn, as they understand the need to avoid the shame that comes with admission.

So whether you watch it or not, vocal porn watchers assume you do because it’s a guilty pleasure that most people wouldn’t admit to, so a defacto assumption is made.

You are right. Under no circumstances should I account for it.
There are plenty of men who have no interest in watching any type of pornography and many more who dislike the prevalent culture & attitudes towards women widespread throughout the international porn industry so much that they refuse to watch professionally produced pornography.

Yes. More normal than being a porn addict

I would say that's a good thing, pornography is so normalised but it has been proven to be terrible for developing minds.

It is normally the far left that is in wilful denial
