The Sirens and the victim - the power of seduction (update 1)
Robert Greene (author) put out a great book by the name of the Art of Seduction, not an manual pe se but a historic account of how seduction manifests it's self in society and history. Seduction has not changed in the thousands of years in our civilization and all it's cultural development. It stays the same. Eliot Spitzer was the NY governor before he fell from grace after it was revealed he was seeing high class call girl Ashley Dupre (picture above).
Spitzer was the prefect victim in a seduction, a legal/political power broker and critic of Wall Street , she (Dupre) could justify the $2,000.00 an hr and continue to utilize the exposure (now she has projected her self onto the Playboy persona), so a re-balancing of power should maintain (Spitzer has certainly attempted to regain some credibility), to a degree. But never completely close to a male's power, but the survival mechanisms of sexuality/seduction to gain favours will never go out of vogue.
