I am not trying to be crude or over-sensational here, there are some theological and philosophical lessons.
Daily Mail: April 9
Cited:
'A sex-crazed Angelina Jolie lookalike has been handed a suspended jail sentence after a taxi driver claimed she had tried to kill him when he refused to perform a sex act on her for a third time.
Nicolae Stan, 35, told police Luminita Perijoc, 31, had already forced him at knifepoint to have intercourse and perform oral sex during the incident in 2012.
He claims he met Perijoc while he was hired to deliver some bags of shopping to her apartment in the city of Tulcea, in eastern Romania, and when he turned up at the door she had asked for his phone number so that she could engage his services again.'
He said several hours later she called and asked him to pick up some bottles of wine and come back to her apartment to deliver them.
When he turned up at the door, she had grabbed him and dragged him inside and demanded sex.
When he refused she pulled out a 10cm knife and forced him to undress, he told the court.
Mr Stan says he only escaped when he managed to barricade himself into a bedroom and dial 999 on his mobile phone. Police confirmed that they had rescued him from the flat of the half-dressed young woman and that he had been taken to hospital with more than half a dozen stab wounds. She was initially jailed for five years after a court rejected her claim that she was really the victim.'

This connects to Proverbs somewhat...
Proverbs 5:1-15 from the New American Standard Bible
5
My son, give attention to my wisdom, Incline your ear to my understanding;
2 That you may observe discretion And your lips may reserve knowledge.
3 For the lips of an [a]adulteress drip honey And smoother than oil is her [b]speech;
4 But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two-edged sword.
5 Her feet go down to death, Her steps take hold of Sheol.
6 [c]She does not ponder the path of life; Her ways are unstable, she does not know it.
7 Now then, my sons, listen to me And do not depart from the words of my mouth.
8 Keep your way far from her And do not go near the door of her house,
9 Or you will give your vigor to others And your years to the cruel one;
10 And strangers will be filled with your strength And your hard-earned goods will go to the house of an alien;
11 And you groan at your [d]final end, When your flesh and your body are consumed;
12 And you say, “How I have hated instruction! And my heart spurned reproof!
13 “I have not listened to the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined my ear to my instructors!
14 “I was almost in utter ruin In the midst of the assembly and congregation.”
15 Drink water from your own cistern And [e]fresh water from your own well.
Charles G. Martin states: 'The father again warns his son against the seduction of an adulteress...but in the end puts a major consideration'. Instant pleasure or fascination blinds the dupe to the harsh reality'. Wisdom weighs not only the immediate gain, but the end. Martin (1986: 662).

This is a somewhat humourous story, therefore it is in the Daily Mail and on this satire site.
Accepted.
I realize the way the male mind works, being a male, and having spent much of my social life with males and interacting with them in regard to issues with females.
Males can often be duped in sexual and romantic ways.
Unless there is some kind of counter.
Instant pleasure and fascination is temptation. Fueled by natural desire, sinful lustful desire and frustration with a less than fulfilling life in a life that could theoretically offer so much more.
Men can be duped by someone that is supposedly very attractive as is supposedly Angelina Jolie and her lookalike.
Personally, I am not attracted to Jolie and her many tattoos but that is another issue.
I prefer someone more on the conservative side.
Being duped is a result of being finite and sinful through the fall and the effects this has on human nature, in this context male human nature.
Amazingly, the man had already had incident with the woman and must have had some significant insights in regard to her nature.
'He said several hours later she called and asked him to pick up some bottles of wine and come back to her apartment to deliver them.'
He foolishly as a dupe went back, paying I reason, more attention to his sexual and romantic desire and less to common sense and potential physical, mental and spiritual self-preservation.
'When he turned up at the door, she had grabbed him and dragged him inside and demanded sex.
When he refused she pulled out a 10cm knife and forced him to undress, he told the court.'
He should have followed Proverbs and divine wisdom from God.
He should have followed common sense, even with a limited human wisdom.
The nature and character of the person one is seeking involvement with is essential to consider.
'15 Drink water from your own cistern And [e]fresh water from your own well.'
It would be better to seek this with God's help, from a Christian perspective, in Christ, and to avoid other.
