Part 2: Use Physical Lures (The Art of Seduction)
If the person you are trying to seduce has an active mind, then be careful, they may become doubtful about your manipulations. Put their minds at ease by not being defensive, and have a charged sexual presence.
If the person you are trying to seduce has an active mind, then be careful, they may become doubtful about your manipulations. Put their minds at ease by not being defensive, and have a charged sexual presence. Your cool air will clam them and lower their inhibitions, while your glances and voice exude sexual desire. Don’t force the physical, lure them instead.
When your target’s overactive mind calms down, their sense will come alive, and your physical lures will become more powerful. A heated glance will give them flush. Physical appearances are important, but you want to provoke their senses.
La Belle Otero made sure men noticed her breasts, her figure, her perfume, her walk; no part was allowed to predominate. The senses are interconnected—an appeal to smell will trigger touch, an appeal to touch will trigger vision: casual or “accidental” contact—better a brushing of the skin than something more forceful right now—will create a jolt and activate the eyes. Subtly modulate the voice, make it slower and deeper. Living senses will crowd out rational thought.
When leading your victims into the moment, keep in mind a few things. A disordered look, messy hair, a ruffled dress has more effect on the senses than a neat appearance – it suggests the bedroom.
Be alert to the signs of physical excitation. Blushing, trembling of the voice, tears, unusually forceful laughter, relaxing movements of the body (any kind of involuntary mirroring, their gestures imitating yours), a revealing slip of the tongue—these are signs that the victim is slipping into the moment and pressure is to be applied.
If you’re interested in exploring the darker parts of human psychology that most people ignore, consider reading this short book The Dichotomy of the Self.

Masochism and the Self Summary (7/10)
It is difficult to understand the human mind without understanding its pathology. One of the ideas that struck me as odd and pathological is masochism – when people derive pleasure from the experience of pain. Freud defined masochism as any action that brings harm to oneself.
