I'm a happy porn user myself, I've never been squeamish about it...But its strictly a means to an end.
My boyfriend seems to use it just as much for entertainment as he does masturbation. This is very different from other men I've dated. Is this typical?
If you want to read the situation....:
The sports illustrated bikini edition in his bathroom, fine.
But the rotating girls touching themselves on his desktop, google photo searches for "boobs" in his spare time, the topless girl without a face on his phone, the naked stripper girls on business cards in his wallet given to him by a cousin, flipping the channel to Bunny Ranch while I go to the bathroom after sex, checking up on his parents to see if they went to bed so we can have sex, endless text messages about how he can't wait to have sex with me while I'm away on vacation with hardly an "I miss you"....
Now its starting to feel weird. Without an obvious emotional connection to accompany these things, I'm worried he's more narrow-minded than I realized.
At first I thought him swiping my panties was cute [and I enjoyed letting him keep some cause I'm a kinky girl!!], now I'm wondering if its more weird. He mentioned wanting to take me to Victoria's Secret so I could buy whatever, in addition to the gift card he gave me. Some people would find this to be a sexy gift, but it feels like he's more interested in trying to turn me into a porn star instead of forge a connection in the relationship he asked to start.
He's a young, successful strong-silent Wall street type that attended Catholic school all the way through college. He is desperately inexperienced in the bedroom. He's in his early twenties and has only had two girlfriends. Maybe three or so hook up buddies. I don't know if there's some sort of culture clash going on here, but my liberal feminist Jewish mother would think he was pathetic if she knew.
I want to say that maybe I just don't understand him. He does try to show he cares. He admits to doing wrong if he's wrong, he tries to be chivalrous otherwise. If I want to sculpt in the park, he'll join me and make a baseball while I try to become Rodin. I bought a technical analysis book because I've needed to learn, and he would love to talk about it. We try to integrate, and he knows he must take time to do things with me.
Things otherwise seem good, but somehow this porn thing comes across as narrow-minded and boyish. It worries me that his view on women is derived from porn. Add the fact that he'll yell at his mother in front of me, and that just kills my girl boner all together.
Any thoughts?

This is far from unusual. Some women find it a problem, some not. It's up you, really.
I have a substantial porn collection but my wife doesn't mind.
