That's not an answer, that's a non sequitur disguised as biological realism...
@OgreLTN, you're describing the urge, not answering the question. Yes, humans have a reproductive drive. That doesn't mean every urge should be acted on or that satisfying it with a robot or a doll fixes anything. The question was about self love vs. using another person as a pacifier. Brain chemicals doesn't address that, it just avoids it.
