Ross Jeffries (born Paul Jeffrey Ross on 20 September 1958) is a former comedy writer with an International Relations degree (1981, UCLA)[1] and the creator of "Speed Seduction," a set of personal development writings and seminars that draw on Neuro-linguistic Programming and hypnotic techniques. Jeffries claims these methods help men understand women, particularly their motivations and psychology, in order to successfully pick-up women. Ross's current version of Speed Seduction focuses on techniques of moving "energy" through the body and the practice of magick. His techniques and online persona have been the subject of some controversy.

[edit] Speed Seduction

Jefferies' first book.

Jeffries is said to have started the seduction community with his online posts. He was the first of the Seduction Community to create a website, usenet newsgroup; he also published books, CDs, Videos; and runs seminars which thousands of men who he claims to have helped with dating and self-improvement. Speed seduction is based on adaptations made by Jeffries to techniques found in Neuro-Linguistic Programming. The basis of the original Speed Seduction books and courses is the belief that in order for a person to interpret a story, question or any linguistic pattern they must first experience its content. Jeffries' students have included David DeAngelo, a well-known seductionist who popularized of “cocky comedy”. He was featured as a pick-up mentor to Neil Strauss in Strauss' bestselling book The Game.

[edit] Controversy

Jeffries argues his methods are completely different from the dating framework advocated by other romance gurus. However, others deny this, and it has earned him the nickname Mine99, as he says all the techniques are based on ones he developed in 1999. Jeffries considers the dating framework to be heavily promoted by the entertainment industry for commercial reasons and to be ineffective for bringing men and women closely together, either for sex or romance. Jeffries denies he is a misogynist, claiming his techniques are designed to bring pleasure to both men and women through a deeper understanding of the needs of each person. [2] However his technique explicitly tells men to demonstrate mastery over a woman and her world.[3]
