What is Seduction?

In a nutshell, it is the art of persuasion. The ability to persuade, to influence or to guide someone in a pointed direction. Every woman, though many may deny it, has at some point or another, seduced, persuaded, or influenced someone in their life for personal benefit. Be it a husband, lover, friend, family member, co-worker, etc.

The difference between the average woman and a seductress is intent. Typically, the average woman persuades subconsciously. Not fully aware that her actions could be considered manipulative or seductive. Most likely, her actions are simply the result of observed behavior.

Take a moment to think about it. What woman hasn't witnessed a female figure in her life display certain behavior or speak in a certain manner towards an individual of the opposite sex in order to gain some type of favorable response or outcome? What woman hasn't learned the infamous technique of "give him some" prior to asking for a "favor?" What woman hasn't learned that playful flirting can obtain her a favorable outcome? Countless tactics such as these appear to be apart of the framework of every woman to garner favor from men. Yet, for many, it is simply a subconscious response to a particular stimulus.

For the seductress, persuasion is a purposeful act. It is done consciously, being fully aware of the behavior and the seducing effect it has on its intended victim. Her purpose is to obtain a desired result. Therefore, she is precise and deliberate in her approach. She elicits a completely different approach to gain favor from a man as she is fully aware that the tactics utilized by the unskilled are both amateurish and ineffective.

What seduction is not, in my opinion, is some misguided attempt to get a man in the sack. I've learned through the years that men and women alike immediately think of sex when they hear the word. However, true seduction, is never just about sex. Sex is merely one of the tools utilized within an effective seduction strategy, it is not the end result. I often influenced men without ever having to use the weapon of sex in which to do it.

Quite frankly, I don't believe the average man can be seduced simply by sex alone. Men are very physical creatures, their stimulus for sex is much different than that of a woman. Many men can have sex with a woman that means absolutely nothing to them. With a man, it's more about availability and opportunity than anything else. However, effectively get inside a man's head first and sex, great sex, can become one of the most powerful tools at a seductress disposal.

Master the use of this tool and it can be utilized to strategically and effectively move a man towards the mark of the prize. What is the prize? Gaining a position in his life whereby he is easily persuaded and/or influenced by her. Once the position is obtained, there is nothing within reason that he would not do to ensure "his woman" is satisfied.

I, unfortunately, have persuaded men to do some of the most outrageous of things. What many would likely call stupid. But, we all have done something for an individual that another would deem stupid. What is the dumbest thing you have ever done for someone you thought you loved? Why did you do it? You were probably caught up, which is the point of a seduction. It is designed to get you so caught up, so wrapped up in an individual that you would do almost anything for that person - even something stupid.

Never underestimate the power of a well-planned seduction.
