“Never be put off by your target’s anger; it is a sure sign of enslavement.”

The Art of Seduction, The Coquette

We generally think of anger as the worst possible emotion we can elicit in our seductive targets.

Our thoughts follow the lines of: if we push these people far enough, they will get up and leave, vanishing from our lives entirely—our greatest fear.

The reality is, however, that in the realms of seduction, anger is not a reaction that should worry us.

In fact, frustration from our targets is a sure sign that these individuals are deeply infatuated with us, fascinated by our seductive behaviour.

This seems like an intensely contradictory idea, one that perhaps does not make sense at all.

To uncover the truth in such an assertion, we must analyse the true nature of seduction—the unspoken seductive dynamics that exist below surface-level appearances.
