Yeah but also there could be a mechanism that increases intensity of certain behaviors/feelings when the animal ISN'T reproducing regularly?
Also I wonder how doing it without an actual partner changes the chemical response.
- coldtea 7y agoI'd say that evolution would not have worked out anything more detailed, as long as the basic mechanisms worked for its purposes... so e.g. "doing it without an actual partner" might not change much, as long as the reward mechanism gets enough people to do it with a partner... (Of course I'm attributing intent here, but it's a random process + feedback)
