I’d say that basic English pragmatics lead us to interpret it as “the terminal value relevant to this situation” rather than “the only terminal value I have”. The relevant question would thus be not, “don’t you enjoy other things unrelated to mating?” but rather, “If you stopped deriving pleasure/interpersonal connection/etc from mating, would you still be interested in doing it?”

Define mating so that “you stopped deriving pleasure/interpersonal connection/etc from mating” is a possible future state of the world. :-)
