Quoted:
you get 50% of your genes from one parent and the other 50% from the other parent. wouldn't we have asexual reproduction for a more perfect evolution? Google meiosis. |

Genetic diversity. Plus the bonding of partners would tend to increase their offspring's chances at surviving until they themselves could reproduce. |

If anyone is actually interested in reading about this, I'd recommend "The Selfish Gene" by Dawkins. It was written long before he became militant, so it's not preachy and it's pretty accessible.
Of course if you just want to sling shit around and not bother reading anything, who am I to stop you? |

Genetic reason: Better to be able to have access to additional genetic traits through selective breeding then monotrait division which would limit an organism/species from adaptation.
Social reason: 2 Parents being able to care for their offspring mean an increased chance of generational survival to reproductive age. Between the two you would have evolution choosing for sexual reproduction, not against. |

This is off topic but I know a guy that doesn't believe dinosaurs ever existed. Says that fossils have always been fakes. Any real giant bones found were actually those of giant prehistoric humans. And they had giant guns. I am not joking.

Because evolution doesn't have an agenda.
Also, many organisms--to include some animals--DO reproduce asexually. Humans did not evolve that way. The largest advantage of our ancestors was their social nature, and therefore it would be advantageous (and thus would better ensure survival) to have two parents producing offspring for whom they cared until they were mature. |

Hell, there are even some multi-cellular organisms that do this. Sharing genes has been around a long, long time. |
