hahahaha yes and no Jim
but to be more honestly some of what my Order talks about [Dragon Rouge]www.dragonrouge.net/english/general.htm
But to be honest the point in all my qusitions is becasue I do have a strong Interest in Thelema even thou Interest is a totaly weak word to explain it when there is some thing much deeper at hand I cant get a grasp with...all most like im being played with on purpose or something.

But if any one could help me in letting me know if this is practiced that would be great!

The A.'.A.'. curriculum is almost entirely public. Including the very few things that are not public, and although there is training in various things (overtly sexual and not overtly sexual) that are rightly called Tantra, there is no following out of a curriculum resembling any traditional Eastern school of Tantra.
So one would have to say, no, there is neither training nor testing in either Vamachara or Dakshinashara Tantra per se
Same answer for Temple of Thelema.

Thank you Jim..I was woundering that.
So what type of sex magick does Thelema use....does it draw off the German order crowely belonged to for some time the "Fraternitas Saturni"?

You can't link this to Thelema per se. That's too wide. For example, the O.T.O. (one specific organization) identifies itself especially in terms of these particular mysteries, and its roots and methods are distinctive. They shouldn't be generalized to any other organization or approach.
Temple of Thelema follows the A.'.A.'.'s approach of regarding "sex magick" (etc.) as just one set of techniques among many - taught for completeness, but inherently neither more nor less important than any other group of techniques. The methods T.'.O.'.T.'. teaches in the Second Order are a syncretic mix rooted in the Western Magical tradition, the mysteries of Shekinah, and the Grail formulations.
