A quick definition of Seduction:
Term: Seduction
Definition: Seduction is when someone convinces another person to have sex with them by using nice words, promises, or gifts, without using force or hurting them. It used to be against the law in some places, but now it's only illegal if the person being seduced is too young or unable to say yes because they are drunk or drugged.
A more thorough explanation:
Definition: Seduction, in law, refers to the act of persuading or enticing someone to engage in sexual activity with them through flattery, promises, or bribes, without using physical force or violence. Seduction was considered a crime in many states until the late 20th century, but it is no longer criminal unless the person being seduced is underage, drugged, intoxicated, or otherwise unable to give consent.
Example: John promised to take Mary on a luxurious vacation if she agreed to have sex with him. Mary, who was in a vulnerable financial situation, agreed to the proposition. This is an example of seduction.
Explanation: In this example, John used the promise of a luxurious vacation to entice Mary into having sex with him. He did not use physical force or violence to coerce her, but instead used flattery and a bribe. However, if Mary was underage or unable to give consent due to being drugged or intoxicated, this would be considered a criminal act of seduction.
