TL;DR: For instance, this paper found that men have more frequent and more intense sexual desires than women, as reflected in spontaneous thoughts about sex, frequency and variety of sexual fantasies, desired frequency of intercourse, desired number of partners, masturbation, willingness to forego sex, initiating versus refusing sex, making sacrifices for sex, and other measures.

TL;DR: The authors hypothesize that socially excluded individuals enter a defensive state of cognitive deconstruction that avoids meaningful thought, emotion, and self-awareness, and is characterized by lethargy and altered time flow.

TL;DR: In this article, social exclusion was manipulated by telling some people that they were likely to end up alone later in life and this randomly assigned feedback caused people to take irrational, self-defeating risks (Experiments 1 and 2), choose unhealthy, rather than healthy, behaviors (Experiment 3), and procrastinate longer with pleasurable activities rather than practicing for an upcoming test.

TL;DR: Men's efforts to force women to engage in unwanted sexual activity can be explained by a combination of reactance theory and narcissism, and assorted findings support this analysis as mentioned in this paper. But the evidence about sexually coercive men supports the narcissism hypothesis, such as showing self-serving cognitive distortions, an excessive concern with being admired, an inflated sense of entitlement, selectively low empathy, and a broadly exploitative approach to heterosexual relations.

TL;DR: Rejected participants who have an alternative source of social connection eschew the increased aggression usually displayed after social exclusion, and four experiments demonstrate that reminders of social activity reduce aggression after socialclusion.
