Perhaps not "wrong." But sex is hardly a benign feature of evolutionary history. It keeps the species going, but usually at the detriment of the individual. Such creatures as salmon literally die to get their rocks off. Within human societies, our freedom to choose partners for love and seek pleasurable self-fulfillment through sexual enactments of our own choosing is a recent phenomenon, going back no further than the 18th century in the Western world.
