I'm sorry if I haven't been more explicit or specific, I was referring to 
sexual charm, of course, wich I found Tom (not Voldemort, but yes 15-year old 
Tom) very capable of. 

If I don't make myself clear, that's my fault, I'm ESL and certainly not high 
skilled at written English. I suppose for 'charming' in the way of being able 
to convince people I'd have used 'manipulator' instead, my vocabulary is 
restricted.

Oh, well, I do see him dating older girls, it's the feeling I get from CoS.
