people are workers by nature, they need satisfaction, longing for satisfaction or gratification. Thats why they choose to get pleasure out of sex, so its not simply about reproduction. The way humans treat death makes them differer from animals just like eroticism. Humans are diabolistic, conscious of death. Death is linked to sin, which is linked to sexual exaltation, which is linked to erotisicm.
