we exist to reproduce

We exist to breath, consume and reproduce. That would be the answer if you strictly look at our biological responses without social integrated psychological responses.
human
breathing and consuming are just subservient functions to reproduction

You can live and die without reproducing, so I think reality differs. Reproduction seems to be 100% optional for life to exist. The body will send signals to stimulate your desire to reproduce, but you can completely ignore them if you want to. But you literally can't go on without breathing, even if you manage to hold your breath a lot it will only last until you lose consciousness and your body starts breathing automatically again.

>You can live and die without reproducing, so I think reality differs.
that's the most hilariously stupid statement I've ever heard
that just means you are a genetic dead-end, breaking the hitherto hundreds of millions of years long line of successful reproduction
>Reproduction seems to be 100% optional for life to exist.
literally the diametric opposite of the truth
reproduction is 100% necessary for life to exist
>The body will send signals to stimulate your desire to reproduce, but you can completely ignore them if you want to.
you can't do that at all, if you were e.g. a male at the height of his reproductive years (say aged 20-40) and you were presented with a fertile female at the height of her reproductive years (say aged 16-30) to copulate with, the impulse to reproduce would overpower any 'rational' part of your brain telling you to do otherwise, and that is why there are almost 8 billion humans on the planet
of course, I can already hear the gears turning in your head, saying:
>'b-but -I- would definitely be able to resist!'
no, you wouldn't, get over it
>But you literally can't go on without breathing, even if you manage to hold your breath a lot it will only last until you lose consciousness and your body starts breathing automatically again.
again, the entire reason you breathe is in order for you to be able to successfully reproduce
there have been countless genetic dead-ends, humans conceived or born with problems leading to respiratory failure, thus making them unable to successfully reproduce
