You may know Pornhub and their "famous" statistics, which always can tell you something about how many fucked up people are found in the world based on porn-searches.
But then there are also more useful statistics on the topic that look into how the general use places in terms of lenght, type and frequency - and whether your consumption is actually healthy or unhealthy.
A study conducted in "The Journal of Sexual Medicine" has divided porn-habits into three different categories:
1) Recreational
2) Sexually compulsive
3) Distressed non-compulsive.
Category 1 is defined by watching approx. 24-minute porn on a weekly basis, while in the high-grade category 3 its 110 minutes per week. If you belong to Category 1, it's a healthy relationship with porn, as the survey shows that people in the that category are more curious, sexually open and interested about sex, thinking, acting and conducting more positive. The other categories approach topics like OCD concept, sexual-addiction and dysfunctionality and raises scenarios where you can not help but see it - an addiction divided into two intensities of categories 1 and 2.
Category 2 varies a lot in minutes - some down to 17 minutes a week, but they saw it hit category 2 as they experienced an addiction like feeling about it.
People in categories 1 and 2 showed much lower sexual pleasure and a relationship with sex in reality defined as slighty off or dysfunctional; either it feels wrong or they completely avoid it in most of the cases.

The survey, however, is based only on 1000 subjects, so there is a need to research a little more on the subject before anything conclusive can be said. Out of the 1000, 830 people chose category number 1, which is the most healthy habit according to the so called experts :-)
I must admit, that I was surprised to learn- after initially reading a note about this survey. that it was in fact a genuine study performed by licensed, hired and paid personal for the media. I didn´t found it entirely serious for most parts, especially not when reading some of the comments people had written (some of them posted below). But they made me laugh quite a lot anyway :-)
I can´t really figure out what catagory to put myself in; if I just go along with the vague description, I have weeks where I am definitely a category 3 -and weeks where I am in category number 1, or 0, had that been an option based on 0 mins. However, compulsion and addiction doesn't sit right in my head, if it changes every third week and I have by far most weeks in category 1. So I might just be porn-category material.
What category would you put yourself in ?
