I’m 63 & only date younger lads – trolls say it’s creepy but I want lots of stamina & short recovery periods
THERE are numerous celebrities who’ve dated much younger men, such as the legendary model Heidi Klum and Demi Moore.
Just like the famous A-listers, 63-year-old Cindy Gallop – who is not a relationship person – prefers her men younger.
The stylish blonde didn’t realise she had a thing for men her junior until the company she was asked to pitch for an online dating brand.
”I was single. I thought ‘I have to do this for business reasons – why not do it for real?”’
The 63-year-old, who used to run an advertising agency in New York, the US, revealed that she didn’t hide anything and was ”really honest about everything”, including her age.
Amongst the ”avalanche of responses” – which were a major ”ego” boost – around 7 per cent of the keen Romeos were younger men.
”So, obviously a bunch of younger guys are out there going ‘Whooppe!’
”So I thought ‘Gosh, haven’t thought about this – but hey, works for me!”’
Sex-positive Cindy, CEO of Make Love Not Porn, soon discovered that she liked dating younger studs more than men her own age – and there’s one key reason behind it.
”I date younger men for sex,” she bravely confessed in an interview with StyleLikeU.
”I want lots of stamina and very short recovery periods. I don’t get those with men my own age.
”I began realising through dating younger men that I was encountering an issue that honestly would’ve never crossed my mind if I had not encountered it very intimately and personally.
”I was experiencing what happens when today’s total freedom of access to hardcore porn online meets our society’s equally total reluctance to talk openly and honestly about sex.
”When those to factors converge, porn becomes sex education by default – in not a good way.”
During her first experiences with hunks her junior, Cindy felt the pressure of going ”the full Brazilian wax route” – after all, that is what’s deemed the norm on pornsites.
However, at some point Cindy could no longer be bothered with the upkeep and realised this was a larger issue that needed to be spoken about.
”13 years ago now, I put up with no money this tiny, clunky website, MakeLoveNotPorn.com.
Why are sex scenes so important?
By relationship expert Marina Lazaris
When it comes to intimacy, I don’t believe in letting TV or movies dictate what is sexy.
I don’t watch sex scenes to inform my sense of desire or passion – I go off a deeper, spiritual experience within.
For me, true intimacy is about connecting with your partner on a soul level, not mimicking what you see on screen.
I encourage couples to embark on their own personal journey of connection, rather than looking outside of themselves for what “sexy” should look like.
In Men Need Love Too, I emphasize that intimacy for men needs to be rooted in more than just physicality. It’s about the emotional and spiritual bond.
For me, true connection is when you’re completely lost in the moment, enjoying every lick, taste, and smell.
It’s those sensory experiences that draw you into a deeper, more fulfilling connection with your partner, beyond what any TV scene can portray.
Take Fifty Shades of Grey for example.
While many viewed it as an exploration of passion, I saw it as two emotionally damaged people trying to connect through purely physical means.
Real intimacy requires more: it’s about vulnerability, emotional depth, and a spiritual bond. That’s where the true spark comes from.
Rather than watching shows like Rivals or Bridgerton, I believe in creating authentic, real-life moments of intimacy.
Those moments, when you’re fully present with your partner, lost in the sensation of the experience, are what keep the passion alive.
By focusing inward and fostering that spiritual connection, couples can experience a type of intimacy that no TV scene can ever capture.
”Thousands of people wrote to me from every country in the world, pouring their hearts out telling me things about their porn-watching habits and their sex lives they’d never told to anyone before.”
It was then the fashion lover, who sports a chic blonde bob, discovered she had uncovered ”a huge global social issue”.
The mission she’s now embarked on with the launch of the site is ”to make it easier for every single person in the world to talk openly and honestly about sex”.
However, it’s not been an easy journey for Cindy – not just in terms of funding the venture but also the backlash she’s received for being so open about dating younger men.
After the 63-year-old beauty had shared a short snippet of the interview on TikTok, brutal trolls came for her and dubbed Cindy a ”creep”.
One person wrote: ”If a man her age said this… this would be considered as creepy. Double standard much?”
Someone else agreed, adding: ”let’s make a man say that now, see how people react lol.”
What makes you sexually attractive and desirable is you – and your body is hot as hell because it’s yours
Cindy Gallop
But for Cindy – who was also called ”a cougar” in the comments – none of the keyboard warriors matter, as she continues to challenge stereotypes and people’s clouded perceptions of sex.
”What makes you sexually attractive and desirable is you – and your body is hot as hell because it’s yours.
”Everything they say about what people find sexually attractive is completely wrong.
”You are incredibly attractive because you’re you […] and you don’t need to look at any ludicrous aesthetic standards set by anybody else.
”Live your life. Don’t give a s**t about what your body looks like – you will absolutely find people who think you’re the hottest thing out,” said Cindy who felt her most beautiful when having sex.
”It’s you naked, you being a sexual person, you being appreciated by somebody else, you appreciating yourself in the moment.”
