Yep, quite spectacularly too! I’m not terribly bothered to be honest but I wonder what the link is. It can’t entirely be associated with the dopamine receptors can it?

Yeah it is all down to dopamine.

In a very simplistic manner the natural activators of your reward pathway (the dopamine you referred to) are things essential for the survival of both the individual and the species so things like food for survival but also sex for the procreation of the race.
