seduce
v.
tempt, entice, lure; lead astray, corrupt; persuade to engage in sexual activity
Seduction
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.
