    Although there were some reckless ones like Thana, but overall there are far many more female Sith manipulators than smart female Jedi. Female Sith like Darth Traya, Darth Zash, Darth Zannah are master manipulators, Aleema was also very cunning. Quite a few of them also love to charm others and lure them to the Dark Side. but even legendary Jedi women like Nomi or Satele weren't very smart.

    Did any female jedi use their charm to bring dark jedi or sith back to the light side?

    Using manipulation isn't smart regardless of who you are.

    Manipulation is using your intelligent to achieve the goal.

    LOL, manipulation says nothing about intelligence. Honesty, yes, intelligence, no.

    And to my knowledge nobody in the Old a Republic was brought back to the Light Side, hence Yoda's assertion in the OT that it couldn't be done.

    Their being women has nothing to do with this.

    I won't say it's the individual's own intelligence, but mostly the different training. Jedi training doesn't have that much to do with manipulation and tricks while some of the Jedi use them. They were mostly focused on resist seduction of darkness and combat technique, some learned diplomacy.

    Sith, are very different. Manipulation, deception and seduction are very important to their training, almost as important as their force technique. The female Sith also knew to make themselves beautiful and use this as their advantage to achieve their goals.

    I'm not saying they are stupid, but Sith, overall, are smarter than them mostly due to their discipline and training. The Jedi training either didn't develop their potential or shackled their thoughts sometimes. That's why Jedi like Mara, who was trained by Palpatine as his personal spy, wasn't bothered by it that much.

    Is it useful? Sure the Sith went too far, but sometimes even to the good guys, these things are useful. Is it wrong or bad, for a female Jedi to seduce a dark jedi or even a sith, eventually brought them back to the light side? I won't say it's wrong, it's for the greater good.

    Ron, I know it sounds harsh, but God does not want this thread to live.
