I ran across this while researching the underlying "motivators", both psychological and bio-chemical for affairs, mlc, etc:
Quote:
Hypersexuality is often associated with addictive or obsessive personalities, escapism, psychological disorders, low self-esteem, self-destructive behavior, lowered sexual inhibitions and behavioral conditioning. Alcohol, hormonal imbalance and change of life hormone levels (puberty, adulthood, middle age, menopause, seniors),[5][6][7] behavior modification, operant conditioning and many drugs affect a person's social and sexual inhibitions, while reducing integral human bonding abilities for intimacy.
This correlates with things I've read regarding the hormones "tricking" us into trying to diverify the human gene pool one more time before breeding ability is turned off.
What really struck me was the idea bolded in red...that this same bio-chemical function might turn-off/reduce intimacy abilities...which matches up with us LBS being spurned, no pair bonding...gotta find new genes...before I die/get too old/whatever. idk, just a theory to throw into the mix in search of understanding so I can continue forgiving, because understanding makes forgiving easier for me.
