In human chemistry, a male-female reaction refers to the process in which two human molecules, one male one female, chemically react, typically forming a bonded product, in the form of a dihumanide molecule. [1]

In 2001, American computation chemist David Hwang, in his “The Thermodynamics of Love”, defined a male-female reaction as a theoretical chemical reaction where two elements, "male" (M) and "female" (F), combine to form a new compound called "couple" (M-F): [2]

M + F → M-F

Hwang goes on to explain the chemical thermodynamics of this reaction in his mating free energy principle.
