I’m hooked on transgender porn and considering paying an escort for sex
DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER successfully weaning myself off pornography, I’ve had a relapse and am back to where I left off.
I’m a 25-year-old single man and stopped watching porn completely eight months ago.
Now it’s back in my life and with a twist – I’m only interested in transgender porn, which worries me.
I watch it in the morning before work, and when I go to bed at night.
What does this say about me?
What I really want is a relationship.

I have the looks and the charm but often fantasise about hooking up with a woman for sex alone.
What is going on with me?
I’ve been having worrying thoughts about paying a trans escort for sex.
I’m so frustrated and feel as though my behaviour is spiralling.

DEIDRE SAYS: It’s possible you are looking out of curiosity. Some people are bi-curious.
You may be suppressing a part of your sexual make-up which is actually too important to be denied.
Early adulthood is a time for sexual exploration – with yourself, with others and the internet – and it’s common for people to get temporarily fixated on specific sexual kinks.
While watching porn can be a healthy way for people to explore fantasies and relieve sexual tension, if the amount you are watching is starting to affect other areas of your life, like forming relationships, then you are right to be concerned.
