1. Human sexual behavior is different from the sexual behavior of other animals, which is governed by a variety and interplay of different factors. Lower animals or species are driven by a force to reproduce and therefore partake in sexual behavior while humans are not sexually active just for the sake of reproduction,but there are a variety of complex factors that lead people to have sex.Usually human sexual behaviour is more to manogamous and doesnot have a mating season like animals.
