Sir Magnum Tollzalot is, of course, implying that the entire establishment of the pickup artistry is based on dishonesty.
In reality, the best PUAs use sheer honesty as their primary tool of seduction.
I'm sorry you fail to see that, magnum45.
Seduction: involves temptation and enticement, often sexual in nature, to lead someone astray into a behavioural choice they would not have made if they were not in a state of sexual arousal.
1. to lead astray, as from duty, rectitude, or the like; corrupt.
2. to persuade or induce to have sexual intercourse.
3. to lead or draw away, as from principles, faith, or allegiance: He was seduced by the prospect of gain.
4. to win over; attract; entice: a supermarket seducing customers with special sales.
Congratulations
You know how to use a dictionary.
It seems as though you have a plethora of sexual hangups that have been troubling your mind for a generous portion of your life. The truth is, women want to have sex. They want to be seduced. They want to be "led astray to make behavioral choices they would not have made" if they were being judged for it.
If you aren't too keen on art, you're in the wrong place. You see, artists use lies to tell the truth. Yeah, I totally ripped that line from V for Vendetta.
You look at a painting by an artist and feel the same emotions that the artist was trying to communicate. However, the painting is, by your standard of reasoning, a lie because it is delivering the emotion through a medium that is not a direct representation of the emotion itself.
Some artists (the best ones) find the most honest way to express themselves in order to express their art. It's never seems to be good enough for closed-minded folk, though.
Evolve.
