The 9 Types of Seducers: From "The Art of Seduction"


Robert Greene has a talent for looking at history and the classics to find a textbook for modern living.  He has written an exhaustive book called The Art of Seduction.  It's over 450 pages long!  This is only a small review of a small section of the book.

Here are the 9 Types of Seducers found in the Art of Seduction by Robert Greene
 
1.  THE SIREN

The first and most ancient seducer of all is the Siren.  She represents male fantasy.  She is supremely confident, highly sexual, smells of danger, and is physically undeniable.

n’t project the fantasy anymore.    

2.  THE RAKE

What the physical is for the Siren, desire is for the Rake.  The Rake is a great female fantasy figure.  When he desires a woman – however briefly – he will go the ends of the earth for her.  The Rake teaches us that intense desire has a distracting power on a woman. 




THE IDEAL LOVER

Most people have dreams in their youth that get shattered with age.  Broken dreams become lifelong fantasies.  The Ideal Lover reflects your fantasy. 


4.  THE DANDY

Dandies excite us because they cannot be categorized, and hint at a freedom we want for ourselves.  Men, not all women think aggressive masculinity is the sexiest.  The Dandy has a much more sinister effect.  He lures the woman in with exactly what she wants – graceful presence, attention to his appearance, and sensitivity to detail







5.  THE NATURAL 

A child represents a world from which we have been forever exiled.  And adult’s life is boring and compromised.  So we have an illusion of childhood as a kind of golden age, even though it can often be a period of great confusion and pain.










6.  THE COQUETTE 

The ability to delay satisfaction is the ultimate art of seduction – while waiting, the victim is held in thrall.  Coquettes lead us on, alternating hot and cold, keeping us on their heels. People are inherently perverse.  An easy conquest has a lower value than a difficult one; we are only really excited by what is denied us, by what we cannot possess in full.  Coquettes are independent because they are narcissists. 





7.  THE CHARMER

Charmers are consummate manipulators, masking their cleverness by creating a mood of pleasure and comfort.  Their method is simple: they deflect attention from themselves and focus it on their target.  Charmers make us feel better.  Charmers do not argue, complain, or pester – what could be more seductive?  By drawing you in with their indulgence they make you dependent on them. 





8.  THE CHARISMATIC 

Charisma is a presence that excites us.  It comes from an inner quality – confidence, sense of purpose, contentment – that most people lack and want.  Charismatics become a kind of screen of which others project their secret fantasies and longings.  This quality radiates outward.  They have a gift for oratory.  They can seduce on a grand scale.





But beware, charisma is as volatile as the emotions it stirs.  Your passion, your anger, your confidence make you charismatic, but too much charisma for too long creates fatigue, and a desire for calmness and order.

9.  THE STAR

Daily life is harsh, and most of us constantly seek escape from it in fantasies and dreams. Stars feed on this weakness.  They are vague and ethereal.  Learn to become an object of fascination by projecting the glittering presence of the Star.

Of all the parts of your body that draw this fetishistic attention, the strongest is the face; so learn to tune your face like an instrument, making it radiate a fascinating vagueness for effect.

Kennedy, during and after his campaign, did not argue with his opponents, he confronted them dramatically.  He posed.  He did not discuss policy details but waxed eloquent about grand mythic themes. 

Seduction seeks to bypass consciousness, stirring the unconscious mind instead.  The most eloquent expression of the unconscious is the dream, which is connected to myth.  Dreams are filled with real situations, yet they are delightfully irrational, pushing realities to the extremes.  Its fusion of the dream and reality that haunts us.  This is what Freud called the “uncanny”: something that seems simultaneously strange and familiar. 

First you must have such a large presence that you can fill your target’s mind the way a close-up fills the screen.  Another way Stars seduce is by making us identify with them, giving us a vicarious thrill.  People of your type will gravitate to you, identify with you, and share your joy or pain.

Stars must always renew their luster or face the worst possible fate: oblivion.  People will turn against you if you bore them, for boredom is the ultimate social evil.  Most importantly, never become obsessed with the obsessive quality of people’s interest in you.
