Sex is a basic human need. Having a child isn't. You need to know you are compatible with your partner sexually or it will lead to tons of strife in a relationship. So not having sex unless you are asexual or a version of it isn't an option.

Sex is a basic human need.

Humans do not die if they don't have sex.

Humans also do not die when they are shackled and locked in a dark room for years or decades, as long as you feed them. How is you argument sounding now?

Still better than ignoring the millions of people throughout history who haven’t had sex and lived long happy lives.

Almost sounds like it's fine when people choose, but is a problem when people are forced. Odd
