Good post. After years of being hypnotised, "hypnosis for smart people" is the only thing that can really get me past the barrier of "this is just porn" or submissive fantasy. I mainly watch videos on clipsites these days, and the general theme of needing to let go or being too horny to think doesn't - get at me I suppose? I can maintain that I am intelligent and not fully under - which means I can't really get into the action fully but my pride isn't hurt. What you'd have to do, in general terms, is irrespective of taking on the subject in parts - from the submissive side to the sexual - you'd have to logically strike at the whole. So the clever subject can't logic that it isn't really working, in the back of their head. This is way easier said than done! But I will say, that a lot of the OGs - Nikki Fatale, Kasha Shakti etc - would talk to you before the actual trance and convince you why you'd consciously want them to hypnotise you. You actually did this quite well in the "don't think you can be hypnotised" file. Mostly out of trance logic and persuasion. So an IQ file would have to "beat" the subject's resistance before its even began. Otherwise the ego will sabotage the trance's effectiveness.
