Sirens...and the drowning men who love them.

Welcome again, Ladies and Gentlemen. Today, we study The Siren.

Sirens bewitch men. This is a simple fact of life. The Siren exudes an exciting, adventurous, and potently sexual presence that entices the men...and yet, the Siren herself remains ungraspable--unless she chooses to be grasped. She's dazzling, sexy, alluring, and her every movement is a source of pleasure.

This does NOT mean that she is easy. Sirens make themselves pleasurable company to men, but pleasure is not always about sex. And many times, the Sirens themselves do not exactly understand the effect they have on men.

One of the most famous Sirens was Marilyn Monroe. To this day, I have yet to meet a man (homosexual or straight) who does not know who she is and revere her as the sex symbol and goddess that she was. To quote her: "My admirers all said the same thing in different ways. It was my fault, their wanting to kiss me and hug me. Some said it was the way I looked at them--with eyes full of passion. Others said it was my voice that lured them on. Still others said that I gave off vibrations that floored them."

No matter how you do what you do as a Siren, men will be floored. They will be drawn in and drown happily.

Keys:

1. Voice:
Whatever tone you choose (sweet, delightful, langorous, exotic, child-like, suggestive), you simply must learn the art of insinuation. You must hint at eroticism, and do so as subliminally as possible. Never be overtly sexual with this. Much of communication is what your body and tone say, not the words that come out of your mouth. Use your tone to make your point. Also, remember that your voice is there to lull, to mezmerize your victim. NEVER speak too quickly, aggressively, high-pitched, or sound like a man's mother. That isn't your job.

2. Body:
Where your voice needs to lull and mezmerize, your body should captivate. Everything in your appearance must dazzle, be harmonious, with no single thing drawing attention. Everything needs to draw attention TO YOU, not to the item itself. You are a goddess, feel free to look like one. Be a charged, larger-than-life fantasy.
Also, remember that what youcover and what you leave selectively bare can be seductive in itself. Caution: wearing less and less does not make you sexier, it makes you look like a slut. Sensuality has very little to do with what you are or are not wearing. It is how you walk, talk, sit, stand, laugh, carry yourself, wear the clothes that you choose to.
Napolean's wife, Josephine, always left her arms bare. This was more selectively seductive than acres of decolletage to many men.

3. Movement/demeanor:
Make as many of your movements as gracefully and suggestive (i.e. learn to look like you're floating when walking, be graceful, unhurried, etc). Remember, the point is to not be overt with the suggestions. You hint, cajole, stir the victim without being obvious.
You may worry about confusing your victim. Don't. You want your victim confused--that's the point. The mix of innocence and sex are seductive. In general, anything not immediately understood is seductive. Let that seductive dicotomy consume you, and you become seductive as well.

Dangers:
The problem for Sirens generally comes from the same sex. She will always have a reputation--Rome thought Cleopatra a whore. Men are forgiving of the reputation, women envy and that turns them into enemies. The Siren can combat this somewhat by playing up their innocence and making herself seem a victim of male desire.
Also, the attention that Sirens get eventually irritates them. They may want no attention at all, or just a different type. Not all beautiful women are brainless, but some people tend to believe that they are.
Finally, physical beauty fades over the years. The Siren herself must learn to play on more than the physical desires of men--the psychological aspects of seduction are more seductive than sex. Sex is easy. Anyone can get it, even on short notice. So learn to seduce the psyche as well and you'll have more power after.

Anyone can take on a few of the qualities of the Siren, but in many ways you have to be born with it. So, if you aren't one, feel free to play with it a bit--make yourself as attractive as possible. If you are one, it's hard to make yourself unattractive. So the best of luck to everyone.
