Been waiting all through work to answer this! I havent seen a post from you in a while and you dont dissapoint! Its very tricky. I think that sexual harrassment is not seduction, thats first and foremost. Yes, men can be sexually harrassed. Sexual harrassment is any unwanted sexual attention, jokes, and discussion. Sexual harrassment at wirk is against the law.

Now, to be a con artist, and take advantage of a weaker person its more difficult. I think there is again tho a difference between seduction and con artistry. One can use seduction, to get people to give them things and if those people are older or younger or mentally unstable but wealthy it can be clear in that the person says "no this was not a gift" or "i was confused and scared" the fact is that if you give valuables and realize that you didnt want to give them--- and there is no evidence other than he said she said--- you might be screwed. But that doesn't make it okay.

I know that i asked for a lot of help with housing before and people felt i was trying to con them. I wasn't using "seduction" per say but i was persuasive as any person who is interested in the arts has to be in order to survive.
So again, ethically, I think it depends on the other person. If they say no and i dont walk away but try again from another angle thats treading on thin ice. But im sure any sales person will tell you that this is the essence of their work and its entirely ethical to them.
When it comes to sexual encounters outside of work this is where i becomes the most dangerous for both sides.

BUT-- I firmly believe that men in positions of power are abusing said power when they invite potential colleagues (especially those who are younger and undiscovered) to their homes with promises of work. A lesser but still dangerous abuse of power is getting drunk with non wealthy /famous people and taking them home.

I had a situation of a similar case. A man who was a leader in an organization and very charming offeredto take me to dinner. We were meant to discuss working together. I was open and when he said cone to my place to look at files i stupidly went. "To just talk" i said multiple times. Then when we got to his place it was a huge house that was dark and empty. I guess each room was being rented. He had his files, on the floor. But still it was im pressive and stupidly i fekt safe. This was a well trusted community person. Honestly, i was attracted to him. But a: i wanted to do business and b: i dont normally move quickly in this situation.

After a very short time sitting on the floor of his bedroom he stoppedtalking and started kissing. I was shocked not that it was happening but with how quickly one thing led to the next. Tried to stop it multiple times. Eventually he held me down. He laughed at me and told me i liked it. This is where seduction goes very array.
