Abstract |
From a survey of recent literature on the subject of masculine sexual behavior the writer concludes that the copulatory response of the male of higher vertebrates is probably not regulated by a special cortical center, although impulses from the brain and brain-stem may play some part in the regulation of the response. The essential elements of this response consist of a series of coördinated spinal reflexes involving the lumbo-sacral portions of the cord. The activition and regulation of the response depends upon the testis, which discharges into the blood stream an internal secretion which controls the sexual response.
