Seduction is the process of deliberately enticing a person, to lead astray, as from duty, rectitude, or the like; to corrupt, to persuade or induce to engage in sexual behaviour. The word seduction stems from Latin and means literally "to lead astray". As a result, the term may have a positive or negative connotation. Famous seducers from history or legend include Lilith, Giacomo Casanova and the fictional character Don Juan. Seduction as a phenomenon is not the subject of scientific interest, although similar, more specific terms like short-term mating, casual sex or mating strategies are used in evolutionary psychology. The Internet enabled the existence of a seduction community which is based on pseudoscientific discourse on seduction.
Seduction, seen negatively, involves temptation and enticement, often sexual in nature, to lead someone astray into a behavioral choice they would not have made if they were not in a state of sexual arousal. Seen positively, seduction is a synonym for the act of charming someone — male or female — by an appeal to the senses, often with the goal of reducing unfounded fears and leading to their "sexual emancipation" Some sides in contemporary academic debate state that the morality of seduction depends on the long-term impacts on the individuals concerned, rather than the act itself, and may not necessarily carry the negative connotations expressed in dictionary definitions.
The Art of Seduction (2001) is the second book by American author Robert Greene. The book examines social power through the lens of seduction and was an international bestseller.
The book profiles nine types of seducers and eighteen types of victims. Greene uses examples from historical figures such as Cleopatra, Giacomo Casanova, Duke Ellington and John F. Kennedy to support the psychology behind seduction. The book contains 24 seduction techniques. Greene saw The Art of Seduction as the logical follow-up to The 48 Laws of Power since seduction is "about power and manipulation as much as it is about romance, about how to make someone fall under your spell."
It is mentioned in Neil Strauss' book The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists as a recommended book in the seduction community.Jessica Alba was given The Art of Seduction from friend and filmmaker Bille Woodruff after a break-up and American Apparel founder and CEO Dov Charney found the book to be a fascinating study in human behavior.The Art of Seduction and Greene have been featured in The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Newsweek, The New Yorker, New York Magazine, The New York Post, Esquire, and Wired.
The Art (sometimes stylised as THEART) are an Australian Alternative Rock band based in Sydney. They began performing under the name The Follow in 2004. Tasmanian band leader Azaria Byrne was known as an unsuccessful contestant on the reality television series Popstars.
Early highlights for the band's career have been supporting successful bands such as the Pixies, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Sonic Youth and Thirty Seconds to Mars as late as 2010, however this was marred by the crowd booing and calls to "get off the stage".
As band leader Azaria Byrne enters middle age success has so far eluded him despite media attention resulting from his being cuckolded by the even older fading celebrity Bill Corgan.
The other band members have all been described as "dull" but this could also be a result of the attention seeking behavior of their singer.
"Ain't Nobody" is a song recorded by the American band Rufus and Chaka Khan. It was released on November 4, 1983, as a bonus track for their live album Stompin' at the Savoy. "Ain't Nobody" quickly gathered popularity, and reached number one on the U.S. R&B chart, and number twenty-two on the US Billboard Hot 100. It has become one of Khan's signature songs.
Rufus keyboardist David "Hawk" Wolinski wrote the song around a repeating synthesizer loop backed by a Linn LM-1 drum computer. However, drummer John J. R. Robinson played real drums for the recording session. The band did a democratic vote and they decided to include the song in their album repertoire. Once the song was recorded, Warner executives wanted to issue another song as the album's first single. Wolinski threatened to give the song to Michael Jackson and producer Quincy Jones for Thriller if the song was not the lead-off single. The label relented and "Ain't Nobody" was issued and hit number 1 on the R&B chart for the week ending October 15, 1983.

Art of Seduction: An Indispensible Primer on the Ultimate Form of Power Robert Greene's previous best seller, The 48 Laws of Power, distilled 3,000 years of scheming into a guide People praised as "beguiling... literate... fascinating" and Kirkus denounced as "an anti-Book of Virtues." In Art of Seduction, Greene returns with a new instruction audiobook on the most subtle, elusive, and effective form of power because seduction isn't really about sex. It's about manipulating other people's greatest weakness: their desire for pleasure. Synthesizing the work of thinkers including Freud, Diderot, Nietzsche, and Einstein, reporting the enticing strategies of characters throughout history, The Art of Seduction is a comprehensive guide to getting what we want any way we can.

I don't know, man, just feels like we're a lot different
Kinda feels like we're on a whole different page right now
It feels strange but um, I guess it's kind of like, it's kind of like
I feel like I'm morphin' into somethin'
That's so incredible that I'm dwarfin'
All competitors better get your girlfriend in check
It's psychological warfare, endorphin's I effect
Your self-esteem shatters as dialect
Comes blastin' out your deck, she loves me
Such a passion, you'd expect this sort of reaction
From her yet
You strong arm, you're fuckin' corny
You try to turn your charm on
'Cause you just think you're Bishop, The Don Juan
But if you think that you're fuckin' with me, homie, you're on one
I'm cockin' my head back like Ed Lover, c'mon on, son
She's on my Johnson, she brings my name up constant
Your boys are like, "She's fuckin' with dude, she wants some"
Homeboy, you better get a clue, she's on my dick
'Cause she I spit better than you
What you expect her to do?
How you expect her to act in the sack
When she's closin' her eyes
Fantasizin' her diggin' her nails in my back to this track
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
(It's like a verbal seduction)
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
(It's like a verbal seduction)
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
(It's like a verbal seduction, yeah)
She's sittin' here gettin' liquored up at the bar
She says it's quicker to count the things that ain't wrong with you
Than to count the things that are
There's a seven disc CD changer in her car
And I'm in every single slot and you're not, aw
I'm the logo on that Dallas Cowboys helmet, a star
And I'm not about to sit back and just keep rhymin' one syllable, nah
Switch it up and watch them haters not give it up
'Cause they're just not good enough but I'm not givin' up
'Til I get my respect and I won't stop 'til I get enough
'Cause I'm not livin' up to my own expectations, aw
That hater alarm is soundin' off, man
Obama took the bomb from my name, aw
So quit cryin' that I took your dame, homie, she's my dame, aw
You sadly mistaken if you're thinkin' that I'm not on my game, boy
And thangs just ain't been that same since that day that I came forth
You wear your heart on your sleeve, I sport that white tank boy
But you got a hard-on for me, what you hollerin' my name for?
It's your bitch on my dick ain't my dang fault, man, I can't call it
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
(It's like a verbal seduction)
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
(It's like a verbal seduction)
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
(It's like a verbal seduction, yeah)
It's like we're playin' lyrical tug-a-war with your ear
You hear it, girl, come here
Put your ear up to the speaker, dear
While I freak this world premier
Seducin' her, loosen up with a little freestyle that'll wait, am I losin' ya?
Am I makin' you look bad? Well, I got news for ya
Homie, you're losin' her
Oh wait, you don't like it when I spit it fast, am I tryin' to show out?
Let me slow it down some
It's still gonna be a blow out
You're gonna wanna throw out your whole album
Rummage through the shit and try to salvage somethin' to see
If you can save any of it, punk but none of it's fuckin' with me
Prick, you really feelin' that bullshit
You think you're killin' them syllables? Quit
Playin' these beats ain't nothin' to fool with
They call me Fire Mashall, I shut this shit down
Your entire arsenal is not enough to fuck with one round
I am also the opposite of what you are like
You're a microcosm of what the fuck I am on the mic
I am awesome and you are just awestruck
She's love stricken, she's got her jaw stuck
From suckin' my dick, aw, fuck
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
(It's like a verbal seduction)
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
(It's like a verbal seduction)
Seduction, seduce
Ain't nobody who's as good at what I do
'Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don't
She's been stolen from you
