That idea applies to real life too. I know plenty of weak-minded girls roaming around my school who are the sole products of suggestion (mainly guys) because they want to be accepted so badly. Everyone recognizes this weakness though, and by trying to be accepted and liked they end up becoming isolated because they seem so sterotypical and boring. There's this one girl whose has been described countless times to me as the sole product of these two guys she likes.

The fact is 90 – 90% of adults can be hypnotized. The best subjects for hypnosis are people who are highly intelligent and who have a strong will. Why? Hypnosis depends more upon imagination than on will and most intelligent people have active imaginations. Intelligence and a strong will lend understanding of what hypnosis is and motivation to achieve it, lessening any resistance to the process. It is resistance and fear that are the culprits generally preventing hypnosis.
There are some who cannot be hypnotized: children or mentally challenged adults who don’t understand the words of the hypnotist, those who are intoxicated or high from drug use and those who are afraid. Some people are afraid of the process and some are afraid of what might be revealed or learned. When the fear is relieved, they are then candidates for hypnosis.
