Even with knowing about the categories, if you still want to know how to tank a stat to actually get them, the only way I've found so far to repeatably get respect to go down is to date them and get a lot of affection with no fear. And the only way I've noticed to tank affection so far is to act like a jerk in events, personal or random.

I believe that in 0.15 the subordinate sex and sex service negotiation unlocks are backwards. When you negotiate for sex, the post purchase dialogue and icon tooltip both mention service, and dating does not lead to sex. In fact, her consent will not progress to developing, I'm not sure if that's linked or a separate issue.
First off I want to say that the game is overall fantastic. I love getting the bad end art without having to save, experience it, and then start over, and the gallery is great. Lots of varied ways to lose, and you manage to push more of my buttons at various points than almost anything else I've played. There's also actual difficulty in combat (at least at times) without being punishing or "this strat only."
That said, it bothers me on some level I can't fully articulate that in a very lesbian heavy game, the only way to play the full vampire path is by submitting to a male.
