Male fruit flies that have been rejected by females :

In an article in Science ( click )
Researchers suggest that alcohol stimulates the flies' brains as a "reward"
in a similar way to sexual conquest..... ::eek::
Re: Link : Alcohohol versus Sx - ketchim - 03-19-2012
The work points to a brain chemical called neuropeptide F :
which seems to be regulated by the flies' behaviour.
Re: Link : Alcohol versus Sex - ketchim - 03-19-2012
Human brains have a similar chemical : :wink:
which may react in a similar way.........
