Honest question, is it normal to feel regret after watching porn/masturbating? If so, why?

I mean, I used to feel it when I was a kid in a religious household, but after that..

Oh, I was talking about eating those massive carb towers with sugar from the link.

I suppose it depends on the kind of porn you're into. Some things are more socially acceptable than others and levels of shame varies. Even among secular society certain things carry a burden of shame, even if they are just kinky stuff done in private by two consenting adults.

Well, fair, I get that about food. It is negative for your health when consumed in excess after all.

As for the porn, well, I guess that makes sense, even if I'm still very much like "if it doesn't hurt anybody, why feel shame? Even if people consider it weird? They don't need to know."

For some people the shame is part of getting off. Without shame there's no kink. Sex is complex.

Well, sure, humiliation and such is a thing, but that also won't apply to outside the scene/play nor is it a very mainstream thing.
