Seduction is basically the manipulation of another person with the intent of using them to satisfy a sexual desire.
Fundamentally, it's not really manipulation, it's more that you are fulfilling the other person's romantic and sexual desire.

Seduction doesn't care about any of that, though. It only cares about quenching the fire in one's loins.
I disagree with that - seduction is used not just for one nightstands, but also for getting a girlfriend and a wife.
