Power is the most elemental human need. We cannot stand feelings of powerlessness or inferiority or having no control over events; almost all of our actions are a striving after power, although this might be expressed in unconscious or negative ways.
The dilemma in the world today is that, if you seem too obvious, if you are too manipulative, too forceful, too imperious with your power, people will hate you and their resentment of your power or ambition will create a backlash. As a result, they’ll work against you, sabotaging and limiting your power.
Nevertheless, with seduction, there is rarely any backlash or resentment. The seducer is a person who in some ways attracts defying thoughts, gives us pleasure, leads us on an adventure, and injects some drama in our dull lives. We do not resent their power because they give us in exchange, something positive that we cannot get on our own.
Seduction, although the female art of war, is the ultimate form of power tested by time. It is a warfare whose battlefield is the mind and conquest is of the heart. And particularly in such delicate times as this, there exist no defense against an expert seducer. Thus, you are powerful if you can seduce!
