Yes and no: Occasionally using porn for sexual stimulation is common, especially among young men but if it becomes compulsive or addictive in the sense that it interferes with other things it is a problem. Also for some people in supports an unhealthy dehumanized view of sex and sexual acts that can interfere with real love making.
