When A Male Vole Repeatedly Mates With A Female, A Hormone Called Vasopressin Is Released In His Brain. The Vasopressin Binds To Receptors In A Part Of The Brain Called The Nucleus Accumbens, And The Binding Mediates A Pleasurable Feeling That Becomes Associated With That Female. This Locks In The Monogamy, Which Is Known As Pair-bonding. If You Block This Hormone, The Pair-bonding Goes Away.
