* Reproductive behaviour can only take place if the neurons in the [[Endocrine_System_-_Hypothalamus_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Hypothalamus|hypothalamus]] have been sensitized to respond to sensory signals.

* Relatively constant supply of testosterone, thus oestradiol, to the [[Endocrine_System_-_Hypothalamus_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Hypothalamus|hypothalamus]] in the male.

* This allows the male to initiate reproductive behaviour at any time.
