...that some of the methods that "normal people" use to leverage others to service our sexual needs may seem minor to those who are either in the position of power or not easily leveraged by them. But people who are easily hooked (because they have deep needs themselves that have no legitimate place to be met) by these methods (men who cannot NOT look at women's breasts or rear ends or women who cannot NOT think about how much money a man has or what kind of job he has...) can attest at how unfair it feels to be manipulated by push-up bras and low cut tops or wining and dining. Victimization works on a sliding scale too, and no gender is immune. Ross Jeffries uses this point to justify his methods, and thereby attempts to make us "equal" before the law. But he still fails to answer the question about our responsibility to have Good character.
