Reply To: The “Mythology” of Science
Hello,
Just thought I would place this in the scientific mix.
“Neurochemistry of love”
“The conventional view in biology is that there are three major drives in love – libido, attachment, and partner preference. The primary neurochemicals (neurotransmitters, sex hormones, and neuropeptides) that govern these drives are testosterone, estrogen, dopamine, oxytocin, and vasopressin.“
Tis the stuff of what myths and narratives are made …
