It's not normal for him in that position to encourage or engage sexual behavior in any way. The reason I think it will hurt you is because people who have things like this happen generally experience trauma due to it. I don't know your exact situation but it sounds bad.
If this started when OP was a kid, I would agree with you, but this starting when they're an adult with someone who may have a history but wasn't a primary parental figure for most of their life. Trauma isn't a black and white issue, it's very much about context. Yes, OP is in a position to potentially experience some hurt feelings and personal upheaval, but I wouldn't say it's necessarily a harmful situation.
is it normal to do these things and have these thoughts
