No, this in itself does not make you a lesbian. In fact, a scientific study was done on women's arousal that indicated that women show physical signs of sexual arousal in response to a wider range of sexual images than men, which theoretically would include images of lesbian sex. You would likely want to label yourself lesbian if over time you found you were attracted to women in the flesh and if you desired your intimate love and dating/affectionate relationships to be primarily with these other women rather than with men.

Also, it might help you look up something called the "kinsey scale" and also the "Kinsey sexual orientation grid". These days, especially among scholars/academics and in the LGBTQ community, sexuality is seen more of a continuum-- that is, few people are 100% straight or 100% gay (a 1 or 6 on the scale, respectively). Rather, people are same-sex attracted in different ways and to different degrees at various points in their life, and these things shift and change. No matter what you discover, you are perfectly normal. I'd say you are questioning your sexual orientation-- do some research, watch some movies, find out how you feel.

BunnyTee agony auntI seriously doubt this makes you a lesbian. It sounds more like an exploration of curiosity than a concrete personality trait. I wouldn't freak over too much. You'll probably find it's just a phase in your own sexual maturation. I went through the same but I was in my 30s at the time and took the curiosity a little further than porn. No big deal, use it to learn about you. You have no moral obligation to confess nor disclose this to anyone but yourself. No harm, no foul. Carry on and fight the good fight!

I have to say, I think as you are boeing turned on by watching same sex, sex you would be turned on by same sex, sex yourself, nothing wrong with that. if u get the chance try it and then you'll know for sure. I'd say if u might the right woman you could have a same sex relationship but as you're not in a position to do so right now what's the point in agonising over it. keep watching the porn.

Honeypie agony auntNo, it doesn't automatically make you a lesbian, what it makes you is curious.

nothing makes you gay unless you trully are gay. if you are sure you are not gay, then you are probably just curious of other ways of having sex. dont worry about it

TimmD agony auntNo, it doesn't mean you are a lesbian. If anything, you could be in the "bi-curious" category. If you and your boyfriend are happy sexually, then there's nothing wrong with watching either gay or lesbian porn on your end.
