Next, we identify with our abilities and our knowledge. “This is what I can do!” and “This is what I know.” Two further strong supports for the ego.

Seduction still arouses controversy and wonder. Is it a sophisticated form of art, a psychological game, or perhaps the most powerful method of manipulation? Although seduction may seem like a male prerogative, as men are usually the conquerors, you will find that we, women, can also be seductive. In the past, women initiated seduction very subtly.
