As we approach All Hallow’s Eve and the witching hour, I thought I would reflect upon an ancient concept, one which although archaic, is is still held sacred by some today.

Sex Magic (or Magick) however it may be spelled, is the idea that there is a special power attached to the primal sex drive and act. Sexual activities, orgasms and carnal pleasures can lead to the production of magical energy, which some believe can be used cast spells and forge concrete changes in the real world. Another aspect of this is Tantric yoga, which centres around the power of sex to release and develop the consciousness- awareness of the hidden world surrounding us. All of these beliefs possess their own special rituals and exercises for devotees to practice. However curious about these matters, I am no expert and lack any experience of such incidents. Having said that, I do find the idea of such a phenomenon as magical sex to be extremely compelling!

We are certainly exposed to many instances of the dark power of sex, in art, drama and documentary, but little of the other side, the working of that forge smelting fire and light which occurs with really satisfying sexual encounters.

Sexual energy is such a natural, mystical, overpowering force with its own peculiar momentum, dynamic and occult features. Only suppose that every time we were in a sexual encounter, we gave ourselves to each other and the experience utterly? If only we could set aside equivocation, anxieties and other worldly intrusions to breathe a purer air, free of distraction, full of sensation and nothing else? Imagine if we could abandon self-consciousness and replace it with absorption in the other, finding in mutual trust and abandonment a new power and liberation? Who knows what powers of nature would be set loose to forge irreversible change in our lives?

That, to me, is what ‘Sex Magick’ is fundamentally about, the potential of sex for positive, constructive change. I hope you all find some of your own this Hallowe’en!

Valentine’s day, most have recognized but only the brave have admitted, is the worst day of the year, even for non-singles.  You have to uncomfortably analyze your relationship, pick the right gift to express your feelings, and hope that you don’t blow it or send the wrong message.  To help you through the mires and mazes of getting that perfect gift, I’ve compiled a list of the best and worst.  Now you no longer have to pick at your peril!

Best:

1. The Classic:  Chocolates and flowers.   I personally find it immensely sexy to be given the reproductive structures of angiosperms.   Narrow-minded people will tell you that flowers are cliché and predictable, but classics become classics for good reason.  Many of us have had to buy ourselves chocolates and flowers every year because our lovers were too afraid of filling the cliché, so we had to do it ourselves; trust me, that’s far worse.  Be original, though; pick your valentine’s favorite flower, or a posy with interesting colors.

2. The Creative:  Fake flowers.  (Please note: this and “The Classic” are not mutually exclusive.)  Turn your love-notes into a bouquet!  They will last longer than real flowers, and your lover can literally, instead of figuratively, read your adoration.

3. The Practical:  Boxes and boxes and boxes of condoms.   They demonstrate your capacity for forethought and prudence and are a not-so-subtle way of saying, “I want to rip your clothes off three times a day from now until August.”  What could be sexier than that?

4. The Sweet:  Plan to go out for the entire day; museums, parks, that café that you’ve been meaning to try.  Stepping away from the world and spending time with your valentine shows that you value his / her company, which is really the best gift ever.  Actions, my friends, speak stronger than words.  Plus (because we’re all a little bit selfish), it’s a gift that you can enjoy, too!

5. The Sexy:  It’s like “The Sweet” but it takes place at night and is slightly less………….wholesome.  Candles, rose-petals, and lingerie instead of museums, parks, and a café.   According to science (I’m told), experiences make you happier for longer than new objects do, so give your lover something he / she will remember!

Worst:

1. The Insulting:  A nice, new, shiny vacuum cleaner.  We don’t care how fancy it is, how well it gets all those stale crisps crumbs from between the sofa cushions, or how good your intentions are.   You are basically saying, “You should vacuum more.”  This, in case you aren’t aware, is the wrong message.

2. The Awkward:  “This was my mother’s engagement ring.  I want you to have it.”  “Duuuuuude, we just met last week!”

3. The Platonic:  Printer paper.  Groceries.  The little felt pads that go on the bottom of chair legs.  Basically, anything practical (that’s not condoms—see, “The Practical”), doesn’t count as a gift.

4. The Boring:  A store-bought card.  Cards are soulless.  You might as well say, “I have so little imagination, I had to pay someone who has never met either of us to express my feelings for you.”  Unless you are genuinely illiterate, write your own.

So here I am on a Sunday morning, school uniforms rotating in the tumble dryer, sat at my PC with a hot mug of tea. With a slightly unfocused mind from cumulative lack of sleep, I’m trying to decide on the subject of my last blog before New Year. This blog is targeted at people who are considering indulging themselves by joining Toyboy Warehouse (TBW).

It’s just two and a half weeks to go before the extended seasonal holiday and that is only two shopping weekends left.  Slight hysteria rises as I think about it. Yes, we’re approaching Christmas again, with its current materialism, shopping frenzies and hedonistic aspects. . I love Christmas, but sometimes feel as though I’m on the set of the film ‘Groundhog Day’, with events repeating themselves interminably.

This can be one of the loneliest times of the year for some people. For single people, being with extended family can make it worse. There may be jokes and questions about settling down, hideous presents and even more hideous conversations, yet again demonstrating a lack of understanding or tolerance about who you are. For others, there is no family and time is often spent completely alone whilst friends are with their relations.

Yet hidden somewhere within it all is a deep celebration of the meaning of real love and ultimate selfless giving; a time for family, close friends, laughter and simple pleasures; a season to reflect on what really matters in life.

I joined TBW almost 2 years ago as a bit of a joke actually, persuaded by a male friend who intermittently ‘signs on’ to the website. It’s never been a regret that I joined. Previous to TBW, I had dated and been in some relationships with younger men since before I became a mother late in life. They have ranged from 1 year younger (which doesn’t really count), to a whopping 23 years younger. (Yes, the latter was legal: he was in his early twenties and I was in my forties at the time). I do actually enjoy being with some men my age and older as well! A man’s personality and that intangible attraction and ‘fit’ is far more important to me than any other factor.

In one of my previous blogs, Hope, Morality and Happiness, I explained that I started ‘dating younger’ because I was so disillusioned by dating men of a similar age who turned out to be unavailable. By that, I mean they had either concealed the fact they were either married or in a long term relationship or they told me they intended to cheat. With me, if possible. Well, I was not interested in that kind of lifestyle.

One day, aged 37 years young, I met a delightful, beautiful and bright younger man in a gym. He made no secret of the fact that he was attracted to me. I decided he was lovely and the relationship evolved naturally. It was an absolute breath of fresh air: no secrets, nothing inconvenient he ‘forgot’ to tell me, everything open, honest and straightforward. He was a 22 year old university student from another city on an extended work placement with his course. We just enjoyed being together for a few months; he even moved in with me for a little while. While it lasted, we made each other happy; it was as simple as that.

Since then, I have always considered dating younger men, but they have been the kind of people I would get on with irrespective of age. TBW has increased my dating pool, given me more options and allowed me to meet some great guys. It’s proved to be quite a community of like-minded people, despite the very great variations in members’ ages, backgrounds and the types of relationships sought.

So, to any waverers, I would say, by all means give Toyboy Warehouse a try! You have little to lose. In my opinion, the best present anyone can give at this time of year is the gift of themselves.

There are so many boys and girls out there who have been really good all year. You might find the present they really deserve, that can make all the difference this Christmas is… you!

The post The Best Gift of All… appeared first on Toyboy Warehouse.

Sam is an acronym for ‘Self-effacing Antipodean Man’, my New Zealander who has spent the last decade working his way around Europe. When we have the rare opportunity, we are lovers but more so, we are friends.  When we met initially, Sam was just twenty-six and now he is a mature man with his fortieth decade in sight. I am in my late fifties, with no intentions of leaving my hard-won career yet. Our connection has grown over ten years, constantly there in the background of our daily lives. Inexorably, we keep returning to one another, although on the surface, we seem to have hardly any common ground. It is one of those paradoxically bittersweet affairs. I have no illusions that it is going anywhere, yet it seems neither of us can break away. We do not ask anything of each other. We attempt other relationships and when they disintegrate, as always seems to be the case, this is the one constant, an infallible source of comfort. Our flaws and foibles are complementary; we fit together. For some indefinable reason, we are each other’s fantasies. Perhaps this friendship would not survive in the harshness of real life.

It’s the Christmas season and Sam is looking forward to his holiday; we have been discussing meeting up. Now, if Sam were an angel, I know he would have been the one with the shepherds. I can imagine him insisting that he wanted some good, keen men in the nativity, that the greatest moment in history should involve at least a modicum of social justice. He would have maintained the position that ordinary people should not be excluded from a singular event because of material issues.

I doubt he would have appeared shining in the sky, which would be far too ostentatious for his tastes. No, Angel Sam would have descended from Heaven some way off from the hillside, ceased luminescence in case he frightened anyone and run up from Bethlehem for some exercise. Then he would have folded his magnificent wings away and walked up to the shepherds quietly, to remark on the lovely evening and the quality of the stars. They would have talked simply about Nature, Sheep and very possibly Sport before he asked if they had heard of the special baby, in a heavenly version of ‘guess what this bloke in the pub told me’. He would probably have won them over into visiting the stable with the promise that he would see them there. He would have had them thinking it was their original idea to take a risk and leave the sheep, entrusting them to a higher power for a little while. I suspect that he would have given clear, lucid directions about the Star before jogging all the way back to join the angelic throng. And I’m certain he would have been the one at the back of the throng.

Angel Sam could not tolerate being a ‘shock and awe’ member of the heavenly host, which is contrary to his nature. He could turn on all the glory, singing, shining and levitating if he wanted to, but he would hate all the attention it attracts. Sam is the reluctant angel who disguises his true nature, who fastens weights to his ankles, binds his wings, hides his halo and his inner light and passes amongst mere mortals dispensing peace and goodwill in practical acts, unrecognised and unacknowledged.

He is like that. Sam is the one at the back of the photo, the tall, pleasant, shy-looking man who hates making fusses and who is too easily overlooked. He is such a straightforward, decent, loving human being who would help anyone in real need and then walk away without even leaving his name. He would be embarrassed by my hyperbolic stance but he knows by now how I am fundamentally prone to exaggeration. And without superlatives, I have seen that light in him, how steadfastly it shines. During the festive season, I will reflect with gratitude on my good fortune to have met and been loved by such a perfectly flawed, good man.

As Father’s Day drew near, it started me thinking.

For involved dads who are also TBW members, well done! To paraphrase a popular saying: ‘Any dog can reproduce but it takes a real man to raise a child’. I know, as a lone mother, that it’s really tough for a man to give the time to stay in touch and be a meaningful part of children’s lives. Giving time to kids as a separated parent may mean sacrificing what you would ideally like for yourself, at least in the short term. These choices will probably be worth it in the long run, but they inevitably come at some personal cost. So respect to all of you good fathers out there!

For men (and women) who aspire to be parents, but also want age gap relationships, are the two mutually exclusive? Well, yes… and no. I did some research on the emotive and controversial subject of ‘older’ mothers, defined as over the age of 35. What I discovered is intriguing. It all depends on the lady’s age and fertility.

Despite the pressure in society for women to have children in their twenties, recent scientific studies have found that modern fertility in prosperous countries persists for much longer than previously thought, certainly up to age forty and possibly into the mid-forties, although it does decline sharply around this time. The Office for National Statistics produced a data set in 2013 proving that the fastest growing group of mothers in the UK who conceive naturally are over 40, although still a very small percentage of the total. They suggest this is due to increasing fertility and delayed motherhood. I’m part of this trend. I first became a Mum in my forties, along with two of my closest friends. The whole process, from conception to birth, was absolutely natural and straightforward for us all. Boring, I know, but true. I saw my consultant once. He said that if I could become pregnant without medical help, I was ‘low risk’ and he did not want to see me again unless I developed a health problem. I didn’t see him again. My baby was born in under 4 hours and was perfectly healthy. So, for the majority of ladies up to the age of 40, making babies should be perfectly possible.

Menopause for most women doesn’t begin until the late 40s or early 50s, much later than popular myths would have us believe. The process takes around 10 years to complete and so on average, childbearing years are over by the mid-50s. However, although very rare, women in their late forties and fifties have also become pregnant naturally. Within the last 30 years, the oldest woman to conceive naturally in the UK was 54 when she gave birth to a healthy baby! Until a year after a woman’s periods have completely stopped, you are advised to use contraception, unless you want to take the risk of pregnancy.

The statistical data usually quoted around fertility rates (and birth defects in babies) is gained from some questionable sources. Much of it’s gleaned from the population of older ladies being treated in IVF clinics, many of whom had pre-existing difficulties with fertility. This data may not apply to the peer group in general. Also, some of the most often quoted data on ‘problems’ comes from a statistical set gathered in 18^th century France, a questionable comparison when modern women are fortunate to be both healthier and longer-lived. Also, the frightening possibility of birth defects is likely to be at least partially offset by a young, healthy father.

If having your own children naturally is not possible, most IVF clinics now look at the average age of the couple, taking the ages of both parents into account (and this also applies to adoption agencies). With IVF, while there are considerable advantages and disadvantages to consider, having a much younger partner can be enormous mitigation against the disadvantages.

The charge of being ‘selfish’ in having children later in life, cannot be so easily levelled at a couple where the father is young and energetic, even if the mother is much older.

So, actual and aspiring Dads, I wish you all a Happy Fathers’ Day!

Where I live, it’s really lovely to see sunshine, flowers in bloom or bud, and birds courting and nesting. New growth and new life is on the way: it’s an exciting time. Yes, the first signs of spring have arrived and I’m really enjoying watching them this year.

So, is it also time for a new lease of life, with less of the same old boring routine and more hope of constructive change? For singles, is it the season for a new type of dating? Thoughts at this season easily turn to finding new love and romance, but also… maybe… to trying new things and changing routines which aren’t working. This might include discarding unhelpful checklists or claustrophobic rules about who can or can’t be a love match.

One modern way of doing this is to increase the range of compatible partners by relaxing pre-set ideas about age. Contrary to traditional views, older women and younger men can be highly compatible. For very young people, a gap of two years can be a chasm. For some older singles, a difference of thirty years or more can seem like a year. It all depends on the individuals involved and what they want.

As with any other dating, finding a compatible partner depends on the interplay of some very complex issues. What kinds of relationships are being sought? Personal values, philosophies, experiences and common backgrounds may be crucial. Life priorities, expectations, interests and activities may also play a part. Finally, of course, that elusive sexual chemistry underpins everything! While some in this community are totally committed to the incredible lifestyle choice, others wouldn’t rule out any prospective new love based on age alone. I put myself in this latter group, but most of the men I meet where there is a mutual attraction do happen to be younger than I am!

For singles reading this and hoping for change, a spring-time leap into the dating world of younger man with older woman might be the solution to romantic dilemmas! It certainly increases the numbers of prospective partners in a wonderful way. Whether the goal is no-strings flings; sweet, short love affairs or a soul mate for life, have a go and see what happens.

After all, it’s springtime and the season for change!

Trust the years 

The post Love in Springtime appeared first on Toyboy Warehouse.

Today is Mother’s Day, the one day of the year when we must not fail to recognise the monumental part played in each of our lives by our mothers, grandmothers and (if you’re really lucky) great grandmothers. Though today we celebrate above all these inspirational maternal figures, lets also recognise the role of all single parents, mothers and fathers, in our latest blog which has been written by a valued member and talented blogger, Trust the years.

How to date a lone woman with children aged 0-16:

Living with her can be a challenge but also a source of real hilarity and fun. Although it can be hard work to organise, lone mums really do appreciate some uninhibited passion in their lives as an antidote to the humdrum domestic routine. Here are a few of my thoughts on how to manage this situation- intended as a light-hearted starting-point. It’s definitely not for experts: dads, teachers or anyone else who is perfectly knowledgeable already.

Age:

• Pre-schoolers are very cute, equally demanding but easy to control, in the sense that one can physically transport and deposit them anywhere easily. They are not easy to control in terms of their natural, noisy and continual demands, which always provide unexpected variety.  Please be aware of the overwhelming instinct most mothers have to protect their children when they are very tiny and avoid criticism of her parenting style.
• Older children may be more independent; however they will have their own agendas and anxieties. You may be viewed as a threat, a potential friend or a complete irrelevance.
• Particularly for age groups from school through to sixth form or college age, you need to get savvy about the school or college year, as this is how a woman’s life is organised.

Term dates:

This is the first layer of the totalitarian regime which makes up the life of the woman with children at home. I don’t know about anyone else, but in my kitchen is a dictatorial calendar and every year, the first things that go into it are key school dates. The terms, the half-terms, the school vacations, the pestilential In-Service Education & Training (INSET) days. If you have no idea when these fall, check the website of your local authority as a guide, or better still the website of HER local authority. If her children are younger, the same applies to nursery or child-minding arrangements. In the England, school begins in reception year (or year R) for children aged 4 to 5 years and children must commence school by their 5th birthday. Year 1 applies 5 to 6 year-olds and so on, up to year 11, the end of compulsory full-time education for 15 to 16 year olds. A class is composed of children born between September 1st in one year and August 31st the following year.

Children’s activities:

Highlight these in your diary as they will take priority over you! And do remember that in the school holidays, activities may well stop, throwing any regular arrangements you have into free-fall!

Shared care:

Most mothers in this situation have an ex-partner or grandparents to take over duties during some weekends and parts of holidays. During these periods, she will probably miss her children desperately, however repulsive they may be ordinarily, but for some it’s a time of blessed relief. Highlight these dates in your diary as well, for different reasons. This is the ideal opportunity to make her life 400% better with some Tender Loving Care and without any need to sustain the effort for weeks- take full advantage!

Predictable annual stress points:

There are several sub-types to consider- please do not add to these stresses, be kind and understanding!

Tests and exams:

As those of you who are teachers, lecturers, parents or have any dealings with children from year 6 upwards yourself know, from February to May or June the stress ratchets exponentially upwards.

At this time is the run-up to tests, examinations and career choices, combined with inexorable hormone increases. This means that women are dealing with combinations of emotional outbursts, stinky miasmas of angst, door slamming that rocks the home to its foundations, endless shouting,  weeping and wailing, all of epic proportions, on a continual basis. Remember when you were a teenager and the world did not understand you, particularly your ancient and dementing parents?  Despite the fact that your parents were complete and moronic failures, you expected your meals, washing, chauffeuring arrangements and all the trappings of everyday life to appear without prompting, provided by the eponymous House Fairy. For younger children, the list extends to social arrangements, play coordination and Care Bear cuddles to ward off regression to toddlerdom.  For older children, it includes the expectation that the social arrangements which they forgot to warn her about will take precedence over anything else, since her life is already over. The dementing House Fairy in this case is your object of lust.

School vacations:

This is when all the carefully organised routines fly out of the window and descent into one of the seven circles of Hell or alternatively temporary insanity threatens at any moment. Your lady will be eternally grateful if you do not suggest romantic assignations at short notice during vacations unless the children are away with their father /grandparents etc. It is incredibly stressful arranging childcare at short notice, wondering what reciprocal arrangements will be anticipated by friends, the potential resentment engendered in relatives or the expense of paid babysitters before you even get out of the front door. Any routine tends to go out of the window during holiday times: a woman in this situation has the potential to morph into something quite monstrous with split-second timing. Be patient, understanding and prepared to give up spontaneity temporarily. And above all else, communicate and desist from taking continual rearrangements personally!

Generally, the lady you want may or may not choose to exclude her children from her contact with you. However, even from a distance, you may be viewed as either a friend and ally or The Great Enemy. Children are superb at targeted guerrilla warfare, sometimes surprisingly sophisticated in nature. If you engaged in this yourself earlier in your life, all to the good, as you’ll understand what’s occurring. If not, I suggest you get a box set of the BBC series ‘Outnumbered’ to aid your education about the strategies kids try to get their own way. Find the humour in the situation, as there is a hilarious side to it all. Loving black humour helps enormously. Remember you’re an adult and don’t get sucked into feuds with her children.

Get your head around these points and you will be considered even more attractive. Single mothers get very lonely and tired at times, so a supportive and sexy younger man is a wonderful healing tonic. Do your best to be considerate, sensitive, laid back, flexible, adaptable and you are likely to be rewarded to the extent you believe you’ve entered Heaven prematurely. Remember, in these situations, slow and steady wins the race! Good luck and enjoy putting the spring back into her step!

The post Valentine’s Day Date Ideas appeared first on Toyboy Warehouse.

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and that doesn’t leave you much time to get a date. That’s the bad news. The good news is, it can still be done, as long as you act quickly and efficiently. If you are still in the market for a Valentine’s Day date, take heart – and then take action. Here is what you need to do to get the ball rolling, find your date, and make plans for the most romantic night of the year.

Step 1: Get Out There

If you want a date, you first need to get yourself out into the dating scene to find a potential match. Dress for success, make sure that you are clean and well-groomed, and visit your favourite bar or pub, or wherever the most eligible singles tend to congregate in your area. Once you arrive, immediately stake out the scene. Identify two or three potential targets, and prepare to meet your match.
Step 2: Make Contact

Now that you have a few potential targets in mind, it is time to make your move. Do not wait for “the right time;” this will only serve to make you more nervous and allow for other potential suitors to move in. Make eye contact a few times – if they are interested, they will return your eye contact and potentially smile at you. Walk over and talk to them, sticking with neutral, positive subjects. Be a good listener and look for things you have in common.
Step 3: Look for Signals

During your conversation, look for non-verbal cues that the object of your affection is interested in you. Positive signs include casual touches, eye contact, smiling, playing with their hair or watch and rapid blinking. In contrast, people who are not interested may give you short answers to your question and turn their bodies away from you – if this happens, it’s time to move on to your next target.
Step 4: Make Plans

This is the time to officially ask them out. Begin by asking if they have plans for Valentine’s Day. If not, ask them out for dinner and/or a movie. Don’t do something too over the top or romantic, because after all, they barely know you. Instead, keep things light and fun. Have a location and movie in mind ahead of time to avoid the discomfort of jointly trying to decide where to go and what to see.
Step 5: Make Your Exit

After you’ve made your plans and have swapped contact information, it’s time to move on. Don’t linger and wait for them to change their mind. Instead, go ahead and leave the area, and take the time to get tickets and reservations ahead of Valentine’s Day. When the night arrives, be on time, but not early or late, and make sure that you greet them with a smile on your face.
If all goes well, your Valentine’s Day date will be the start of something great. Be sure to follow up a few days after to ask them out again if you both have a nice time together.
