About this deal

Though the Naturals present a child-like quality, they also bring the wisdom of adulthood and combine these two together to create an irresistible charm. Even better, what I learned from Greene isn't only applicable in romantic situations, but in professional situations as well. Robert has lived in London, Paris, and Barcelona; he speaks several languages and has worked as a translator. The key is ambiguity: you are heterosexual, but you move delightfully back and forth between the two poles.

I was initially turned off by the preface's assertion that seduction is an art developed exclusively by women some 5000 years ago (I believe that it's just the way the sexes talk to each other, and it's never been the purview of solely either women or men) but after I waded into the main text it began to impress me a little more. Sure it might seem like a good idea but ultimately doing such a thing would cause you to lose connection with your own identity, values and tastes and reduce your ability to build rapport with others (If you're not really being who you are then how can you expect people to build a sense of rapport and comfort around someone who isn't being themselves.He had a masculine persona but he wore jewelry and tight fitted clothes to create an aura of sophistication.

They prefer to think that it comes from your personality, your character, something you were born with. A person’s vulnerability, what they seem to be unable to control, is often what is most seductive about them. What will seduce a person is the effort we expend on their behalf, showing how much we care, how much they are worth. If we knew how to play our own part in the game with others who knew how to play theirs (if, in fact, the aristocratic court of Japan or Louis XVI became democratised with leisure and an instinct for pleasure for all) might not life be not only more interesting but less deadly dull? Also think of everything about yourself: the way you look, the way you walk, your moves, your poses.

Greene: and the math was quite insane, at some point he must have seduced everyone woman haver other day, something like that. The only thing that cannot be idealized is mediocrity, but there is nothing seductive about mediocrity. The Art of Seduction nails when it says that Dandies are likely to be accused of being too masculine -for women- or too feminine -for men-. I did enjoy learning about how these historical figures worked their various magics in the realm of seduction. In the first part of The Art of Seduction, Robert Greene describes the personality types of the most successful seducers.

When they turn pursuer, getting involved in the process, brimming with tension and anxiety, the temperature is raised. Strangely and counter-intuitively, while some seducers come across as the worst sort of bully (D H Lawrence was an utter monster), others come across in quite a different way - providing a sort of liberatory service that costs them far more than it costs their alleged ‘victims’. The Suffocator: Those who cling incessantly to you, love you before you know who they are, or who make themselves a doormat to you in their obsession.What is obvious and striking may attract their attention at first, but that attention is often short-lived; in the long run, ambiguity is much more potent. It's about how to control, direct, engineer, exploit, manipulate, machinate, maneuver, steer and hunt others.
