As the introductory post on Seduction here at the Lifestyle Scientist, I’d like to define the topic first. So before we head any deeper…
Seduction originally meant “to lead astray” with its Italian root word being“seducere”: which meant if you were a kid in Renaissance Italy, and were chasing away a duck with a stick instead of running errands for your Mama, then you have been led astray by a duck. You had just been seduced.
