I guess you could fuck. Some mood lighting, a glass or two of cold water, some dirty talk and you'll be rooting before you know it unless some grub eats her out first.
Every single living thing has some degree of self-awareness. It's the premise of the self-preservation principle.

"some degree of self-awareness" is not "move towards sunlight" my friend.

Ok. So google cars are self-aware then? Do you even know what self-aware means?

If it can ask the question what am I in any format then it is self aware. If not it can go fuck itself back into non awareness.

yeah, no.
Even if it's self aware I doubt it has feelings like you or me, get ogre it.

Or you can accept that death, being eaten, resolved into the elements, and those elements transforming into something else is not only not wrong, but unavoidable and indeed totally necessary to nature.

How do you measure self-awareness?

A car doesnt react. Its a preprogrammed deterministic response.
