Description
Initially, this image represented a woman with a hard heart who destroyed the lives of many men.
In more ancient times, because of such bright attention-stealers, people went to duels, in which it all ended with one of the fans simply dying. In modern society, fortunately, you will no longer see something like this. But irresistible beauties, even to this day, depriving men and young people of their common sense, leave a rather strong mark on the fate and, in fact, the heart of the majority of their fans.
Still wondering, what is their secret? How do they charm members of the opposite sex, leaving them crazy and forcing them to commit actions that can jeopardize everything they have - be it property or family.
Anna Pavlova. Predator from St. Petersburg
In 1909, rumors spread throughout St. Petersburg about the arrest of the brilliant dandy and favorite of the big world, Baron Dandre. According to rumors, the baron spent his entire fortune on his kept woman, ballerina Anna Pavlova, and was taken into custody for embezzlement. The fate and freedom of the lover of the famous ballerina depended on her testimony in court, but no one was sure whether she would want to interrupt her Parisian tour to participate in the investigation: there were rumors in the world about her new romance with the first handsome ballet of the “Russian Seasons” in Paris, Mikhail Mordkin, while government official Viktor Emilievich Dandre, under whose care the ballerina had lived for several years and at whose expense all her stage costumes were purchased, was caught taking a bribe when awarding a contract for the construction of the Okhtinsky Bridge. In St. Petersburg, Baron Dandre was sympathized with, but Pavlova was condemned: they called him “a predator who sucked every last drop out of her rich lover, after which she fled to Paris.” But the ballerina was already dissatisfied with Paris. Instead of traveling to Russia to save her former patron, Anna Pavlova breaks her contract with the famous Diaghilev and leaves for America and London in the company of her new lover, Mikhail Mordkin.
Anna, the illegitimate daughter of the St. Petersburg banker Lazar Polyakov and the laundress Lyubov Fedorovna, who in childhood experienced the hatred of her stepfather, the neglect of her mother, who considered the girl a burden, and the early departure from her mother’s good two-story mansion, bought with money “for shame,” had no time for calf tenderness. Studying at the Imperial Theater School became Anna’s salvation and ticket to the “big life.” After the first performance, where the young ballerina was forced to shine in worn-out pointe shoes and a battered tutu, Anna had numerous patrons who were happy to pay the young dancer’s bills. And Matilda Kshesinskaya herself becomes Anna’s mentor. Soon, one of the patrons bought the talented girl the expensive title of ballerina, which in those days was awarded only to the illegitimate daughters of members of aristocratic families who wished to connect their lives with ballet. Anna shone in St. Petersburg in the company of prominent artists, representatives of the imperial court and bohemia. Later, she leaves Russia forever and gains worldwide fame. However, numerous lovers and admirers accompanied Anna until the end of her life, even after the ballet celebrity married the aforementioned Baron Dandre. He will become her manager and the indirect cause of death. Dandre, who once experienced shame and poverty, will force his wife to perform out of greed, even while sick. One of these performances ended for the legendary ballerina in death from pneumonia.
What traits does a femme fatale have?
- She's always mysterious.
Such women seem to be in a cloud, and having torn it off, something mysterious and unknown still remains. Many men cannot help but pay attention to this and become interested. - Femme fatales have inner freedom.
She has no complexes, no pressures, no habit of pleasing someone. It is this behavior that attracts a man much more than his beautiful appearance. - This woman gives a man complete freedom.
Typically, women impose certain boundaries and responsibilities on their men. In the case of a femme fatale, a man who is given complete freedom becomes even more attached to his chosen one. This method attracts a man much more than other female tricks.
Femme fatales, as a rule, do not stand out in society for their external data, but the attention of men is constantly focused on them.
Social roles played by women
Character
The assumption of psychologists is this: femme fatales have an irresistible attractiveness, charm and beauty
, which affects others on an energetic level in a positive way.
This charm literally attracts others, since such ladies are decisive and self-confident, and almost everything completely satisfies them.
This is felt by the men who appear nearby, who lift them onto a pedestal and fall at the feet of their lovers. Sexologists suggest that it’s all about intimacy, in which girls try as hard as possible to please their passion, demonstrating ardor and passion, which, of course, attracts them, acquiring the ability to manipulate and drive them to absolute madness.
Qualities of a femme fatale
- steadfastness and firm confidence in one’s own strengths and abilities;
- the art of seduction, skillful flirting;
- demonstrating awareness of all your best qualities, achievements, talent and success;
- the ability to show interest in your interlocutor and also interest and support him;
- sense of humor and sharp mind;
- lack of habit of freaking out and being dissatisfied;
- showing warmth in relationships and almost always having a positive attitude;
- charming smile;
- the ability to correctly manipulate male representatives.
Matilda Kshesinskaya. The Emperor's Beloved
“She perfectly took into account both the strengths and, in particular, the weaknesses of men, these eternally searching Romeos, who say everything they like about women, and from whom women make everything they, women, want,” Vladimir Arkadyevich once noted Telyakovsky, director of the imperial theaters, who, however, was powerless to characterize the stage talents of the dancer Matilda Kshesinskaya. The director of the theater described frequent meetings and even encrypted messages from senior officials of the state with concerns about the ballerina. Sergei Mikhailovich Romanov, the president of the Russian theater and commander of the artillery, always followed the whims of his counterpart: “We have an excellent ballet and terrible artillery,” they joked in high society then. Sergei Mikhailovich presented his beloved with jewelry, including an impressive Faberge collection, and real estate: Romanov built a power plant next to his dacha in Strelna, because “The little girl was afraid of the dark.” All these sacrifices of the lover led to the fact that Matilda preferred another Romanov - Andrei Vladimirovich, cousin of Nicholas II - and in 1902 gave birth to her beloved son. It was him who the ballerina married during the revolution, already in exile in France. Matilda entered the imperial family and even acquired the title of Most Serene Princess Romanovskaya-Krasinskaya. In exile, the former lover of Emperor Nicholas II and several of his closest relatives opened a ballet studio, where, according to rumors, “the Grand Duke watered the floor with a watering can so that the girls would not slip in ballet shoes.” The ballerina, the beautiful “bone of discord” of the Romanov family, appeared on stage for the last time at the age of 64 and, as expected, received a standing ovation.
The image of a femme fatale
Distinctive features of such people:
- The first thing I would like to say is that a femme fatale is by no means an intimidated, unprotected, insecure, confused girl. This is a wise, courageous and strong person who conquers others with these same qualities.
- A charming lady sympathizes with this type of relationship when her partner, who is nearby, believes that she is absolutely under control and in his complete power. But in reality it's quite the opposite.
- It doesn’t have to be a girl with extraterrestrial, irresistible, heavenly beauty. Still, what is more implied here is inner beauty, which can manifest itself in the charming ability to lure the interlocutor into one or another topic of conversation, even if, in fact, he is not particularly interested in it, in mystery and mystery, in interesting behavior and natural sexuality.
- She may be completely different from other women, which may also hide some kind of secret, originality.
- If representatives of the masculine gender are having a conversation with such a person, then they may have a strange feeling that the interlocutor, a woman, predicts their preferences, desires, knows the secrets they have, or, moreover, even reads their thoughts.
- This is not always a dazzling beauty with a luxurious and incredible appearance, a catchy lipstick color, a stunning scent of perfume, bright clothes (for example, a black or red short dress) and a mountain of various eye-catching accessories. Most often this is a special gesture, facial expression and precise posture.
- Such women love to create riddles, the solution to which, as they believe, men cannot know.
- Partners in the hands of such ladies are usually simply the key to solving their own problems, satisfying some desires and some personal aspirations.
- What does a femme fatale mean to a man? A man who has fallen under her special spell will not be able to return his head from madness to its place for a long time. For them it is to some extent like a “drug”!
- As mentioned above, a femme fatale is not just a set of some seductive external qualities (in the form of beautiful silky hair, long slender legs or an excellent figure, all this can be quite ordinary, but that’s not the main thing). Attractiveness is the ability to correctly recognize pre-verbal signs and body language.
- Their main attraction is charisma. This is what people most often pay attention to.
- A girl who has completely received everything she wanted from her “lover” leaves him, which often makes men suffer and resort to extreme and rash actions.
Important!
The rest of the girls try not to get involved in the fight with femme fatales, since they do not have much sympathy for them, and in some cases, perhaps even hate them. And the more a man becomes emotionally attached to a seductress, the bigger the scar she can leave on his heart.
Femme Fatale: Photos
She loves herself in the body that she got by nature
You don't have to be beautiful to love yourself. The canons of beauty are so changeable, but love and respect for one’s own body are constant. A high-class woman knows how to enjoy extra centimeters, small breasts or large ears, recognizing them as a feature that emphasizes her individuality. And she knows how to present herself “deliciously”, no matter where - among friends, in home clothes, in bed, while washing dishes or at a business presentation. To look and feel beautiful, she does not need the incentive of spectators and applause.
How to become a femme fatale
First of all, you need to pay a lot of attention to your personality.
How to become a femme fatale:
- Mystery.
Incomprehensibility and mystery are the calling card of almost any femme fatale. Don’t tell everything about yourself at once, leave behind some understatement. This will definitely attract attention and also interest your partner. And if it is necessary for him, he himself will find out about everything that interests him. - You should not allow yourself to be in a situation where you lash out at someone
or openly demonstrate your bad mood, even if there is a reason for this. Fatal darlings are almost always in a good mood and happy with everything. - You need to be sexy in moderation
, you can’t let everything go to the point of debauchery, this can be repulsive, but slight seductiveness is what is needed for fatal young ladies. - Sense of humor.
But if, unfortunately, you are not endowed with the talent to joke, then it is better not to try. And if it’s exactly the opposite, then don’t miss the chance and take advantage of this ability.

Why can a femme fatale be repulsive?
There are such femme fatales who, despite their external attractiveness, can only repel men.
What is wrong with their behavior?
- Vulgar behavior.
This can manifest itself in clothing, behavior, and speech. Every man always expects accuracy and sophistication from a woman, no matter how he behaves. - Male behavior.
Men want to see a weak, soft woman next to them, and not a man in a woman's body. - Stupid behavior.
A man does not expect deep intelligence and encyclopedic knowledge from a woman. But at the same time, he will not tolerate nonsense in ordinary life situations, when the chosen one simply does not know what to answer her. In such situations, even appearance does not help.
5 signs and 9 personal qualities of a real man
She never makes excuses
She does not have a feeling of guilt, which is the most destructive emotion, the root cause of her own and other people’s troubles. She knows how to ask for forgiveness and apologize if she has offended, learn a lesson and correct the situation if possible, but she will never carry the burden of guilt for everything in the world, constantly making excuses and demanding indulgence. It is possible and necessary to admit your failure, but only once; all subsequent times are justifications, and they are needed to drown out the feeling of guilt. A high-class woman knows that it cannot be silenced. You can only say goodbye to him by forgiving yourself.

Zsa Zsa Gabor. Hollywood lioness with Ukrainian roots
Miss Gabor married and divorced every three to four years. The consequence of her divorces was millions of dollars, rare jewelry and numerous real estate: “I am a born housewife. When I divorce my next husband, I get his house,” she liked to joke in her many interviews.
The platinum blonde with nine marriages and a sparkling sense of humor liked to repeat: “I don’t know anything about sex because I’ve always been married.” But Zsa Zsa Gabor was obviously a little disingenuous about this. A brilliant socialite, known not so much for her film roles as for her high-profile scandals, romances with heads of state, millionaires, diplomats, actors and actresses, the Golden Globe in the category “Most Glamorous Actress” for 1958, as well as many catchphrases about love and luxury. Her collection of resonant relationships includes novels with John Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Howard Hughes, Henry Kessinger, Frank Sinatra, Sean Connery, Conrad Hilton and his son Conrad Hilton Jr., Greta Garbo... In a word, Zsa Zsa Gabor is one of the key personalities American show business and gossip columns of the 20th century.
By the way, the famous phrase “Men love with their eyes, and women with their ears” belongs to her. The whole world followed her love for amorous adventures and ostentatious luxury; the paparazzi dreamed of her almost more than Princess Diana, several decades later - this is exactly what the girl turned out to be, who grew up in a bourgeois Jewish family in the capital of Hungary. Her mother, Jolie Gabor, née Yanci Tieleman, came from a family of jewelers who lived in Drohobych (present-day Lviv region). It was she who directed her eldest daughter in the only, in her opinion, right direction - to become an actress. However, the other two daughters of “Mama Jolie” also shone on the screens in the 50s. It is worth noting that Zsa Zsa is the only one of the three sisters who gave birth to a child, and then by accident. According to rumors, the socialite's pregnancy was the result of rape by Conrad Hilton (founder of the Hilton hotel empire), who at that time was her official husband. Her daughter Francesca Hilton would die at the age of 67, 13 months before Zsa Zsa Gabor herself died. The mother will never know about the death of her daughter: the ninth husband of the socialite was too protective of her psychological health.
