My son who is 26 years old loves to watch anime. Except for the occasional sci-fi movie, a handful of TV shows (Dexter, Supernatural and Heroes) and wrestling, anime is about all he watches.
Now I don't look at anime because the characters big eyes freak me out. Therefore I don't know much about anime. Some of the anime he likes is
Ghost in a Shell
Bleach
Black Cat
Full Metal Alchemist
Inu Yashu
ChronoCrusade
Dragonball Z
Is it normal for a young man to be looking at anime (rather than porn)?
Embarrassment isn't nearly the same as being "grossed out" -- but that notwithstanding, whether something is natural or not is besides the point; for instance, defecation, which is quite natural, is quite properly not discussed or performed at the dinner table.

Yo, I'd rather my mother think I was a eunuch before she thinks I watch porn. I don't want my mother in that world at... bleeeech!
While those are all reasonable discussions related to porn, it's still very strange to me that it would ever come up unless there was a real problem with it. Like, if your son completely trashed your computer with viruses and spyware or something because he was watching porn, I guess I could see laying ground rules. But it's weird to just bring up on its own. But as I said, it's also weird for your sons to be so free to talk about it with you. It's not a bad thing; it's just odd.Yo, I'd rather my mother think I was a eunuch before she thinks I watch porn. I don't want my mother in that world at... bleeeech!
Many of the discussions that I have about porn with my sons have been about what is legal porn and what isn't, what is acceptable in my house (illegal porn and violent porn isn't) including what sort of posters they are allowed to have on the wall of their bedrooms ( tasteful nudes OK), about what is acceptable use of our shared computer and how many free porn sites are infested with malware (just as some games cheat sites are which I have also discussed with my sons) and I have suggested that if the want to view porn on a computer they should buy their own computer to do so - I see nothing wrong with discussing such issues with my sons.
Mine sure does. She has already given up on having any grandchildren (which is retarded because I am only 24, and I have two younger siblingsI don't have any porn in my room. I watch it all online. I'm fairly sure my mother thinks I'm gay.

Ah. Well, in that case, your kids need to be sneakier about their porn.The first major discussion we had about porn in my house is when we were a victim of internet dumping as a result of one of my sons going to a porn site. The first thing I knew about it was when I got a very large phone bill. When I investigated it I found out that $80 of the bill was a result of one call. Thank heavens, he only stayed on the computer for about 16 minutes!!! I made him pay for the bill in three fortnightly installments. My son however was chastised about not being careful about the sites he visited not chastised for looking at porn.
One other time I came home, turned on the computer only to discover that the desktop picture wasn't a 'photo I would have choosen". I called both my sons in to see it and asked them who was responsible. I got a 'opps, sorry' from the son responsible. He said he had viewed the picture but had no idea how it got to be a desktop background.

My mother is pissed because I don't want to have kids. Sad thing is, and this is true, the only reason she wants me to have kids is so that I can see how hard it is and why having kids ruined her life.
I love anime. I'm a girl, and I'm almost thirty. I love the medium.
