THE ART OF FEMININE SEDUCTION

Dating and intimacy coach Page offers a dating manual that explores how women can use the power of seduction to form satisfying relationships.

After several failed relationships on five continents, during which she was “strung along, left, lied to, emotionally abused, and ghosted in five different languages,” the author says that her life was changed by learning the art of “feminine seduction”—creating intimacy that could satisfy both her and her partner’s desires. The term feminine, as Page clarifies, is defined by one’s energy rather than one’s sexuality or gender. Masculine energy is more “external,” she asserts, while feminine energy is more “internal” or emotional, and everyone has both types. Page believes that “no specific strategic action you can take will fundamentally change a man’s feelings for you”; however, she says that “a shift to feminine energy” in one’s actions can foster “a mind-blowing emotional connection with them.” Page demonstrates how she applied feminine seduction techniques to change her own life in frank retellings of dates and sexual experiences and accounts of meeting and marrying her husband. The book details how to undertake seven “energy shifts” and employ three “ingredients” for seduction: “Attraction,” “Sexual Tension,” and “Emotional Connection.” Page also refers to bestselling author Gary Chapman’s The Five Love Languages (1992) in her advice on practicing and receiving love. Her strategies effectively emphasize mutual trust and respect, and her focus on breathing and mindfulness exercises speaks to readers’ anxiety-filled, fast-paced lifestyles. The author’s visualization and writing exercises are particularly clear and helpful, as are her tips for navigating the world of online dating—such as asking yourself if you would kiss the person in a dating-profile picture. Each chapter ends with bullet points and thoughtful questions about how to tap into this energy and form one’s “Vision of Love.” Her personal stories add further credibility to her relationship framework.
