I don't believe in manipulation, in the sense that you can convince someone to do something they don't want to.
How do you do that exactly? Jedi mind-tricks? Do we have any evidence that mental manipulation even exist?
To go back to our previous topic: have older men developed jedi mind-tricks to make teenage girls sleep with them?

I have a friend who is a pretty big performer in Vegas. His title is "mentalist" because his act/"magic" is based on manipulating human behavior in order to produce a certain outcome. His entire act literally would not work if mental manipulation wasn't real. He also has a PhD in psychology.
