      It’s just the way nature designed us. If we weren’t there’d be no reproduction and no babies to carry on in the future!

      People secrete chemicals known as pheromones which attract the opposite sex its the equivalent to a peacock wiggling its feathers.

      Hello! Wow I only just saw this question which is weird…….anyway I guess my answer is that sexual attraction happens because of the way that human beings have evolved – we have evolved to reproduce. As we cannot reproduce with members of the same sex – at least in the natural way – we are usually attracted to members of opposite sex. The need to reproduce is because the human species has the instinct to continue the species – much like all other species.
