Comments[edit source]

Hello, I had a look at your topic and I figured that if you were to include Drive theory by Hull, it might explain the concept of lust. Here is a link to the Wikipedia site, hope its useful =D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_reduction_theory_(learning_theory)

Hey. Great content so far! I have just added an image of 'romantic love' to make it more aesthetically pleasing - I hope you don't mind? Well done!! U3048330 (discusscontribs)

Heading casing[edit source]

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings. For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==
