If this is your goal in life, by all means proceed.
Relationships, if limited to monogamy and perversions forgone (by perversions I mean introduction of novelty to artificially elevate sexual frequency), intercourse will usually moderate to once a week in line with the natural ebb and flow of testosterone in men after the initial mating period ends during the onset of the relationship.

Most people will still be able to lead very productive lives if the sexual frequency is kept in check as it should be.
However, even sex, confined to monogamy can be taken to an excess if it's an immediate replacement to the masturbatory habit OR if perversions are introduced (oral sex, foreplay, etc) which serve as artificial means to increase sexual frequency.

Strawman
This point is irrelevant; procreation would still ensue even if we do not "fuck like beasts".

You also are wrong to imply that our ancestors had the same sexual frequency.
Sexual stimuli and superstimuli abound and are just a mere click away. The subject participating in it is polished and made to look nearly impeccable with every sign of super health -- white teeth, cosmetics. Endless variety, exists so that frequency is at an unnatural levels.
Moreover, we also have no concern with acute survival like animals trying to get us or having to seek shelter. This causes even more time to go toward sexual pursuits.The products of this enviroment naturally are going to have a higher sexual frequency. Neuroscience is revealing that the sex drive is subject to conditioning---- someone that starts masturbates three times daily will soon be doing it three times daily.

Relevant material:
>Of all members of the mammalian family, civilized man alone is a victim of an exaggerated and morbid sexual urge, a condition which he has inflicted, to a certain extent, on the animals which he has domesticated and which have adopted his diet, especially the dog. Wild animals in a state of nature practice copulation only at certain mating seasons for the purpose of reproduction. Civilized man practices this act at all times, and in most cases without intention to conceive. On the other hand, so-called savages and primitive races leading more natural lives and who follow their natural instincts to a greater extent are far chaste in their sexual behavior, as noted by Havelock Ellis. Such considerations must lead one to the conclusion that the sex life of civilized men is unnatural and that the excessive manifestation of the sex urge among them is due to certain aphrodisiacal stimuli rather than to natural instinct; among such stimuli are a high-protein meat diet (accompanied by physical inactivity), the use of tobacco, alcohol and coffee, sexually stimulating literature, dramas, motion pictures, conversation, etc. For these reasons civilized man has departed from the natural law, obeyed by animal and primitive races, which requires the separation of the sexes during pregnancy and lactation, for the benefit of both mother and child. Violation of this law may account for the large number of physically and mentally defective offspring produced by civilized races as compared with animals and primitive peoples.
>Westermarck writes: "Among a great number of simple peoples, monogamy requires of a man continence for periods of considerable length. He has to abstain from his wife not only for a certain time each month, but during pregnancy or at least during the later stage of it, since pregnant woman is regarded as unclean, and after childbirth until the child is weaned; and the latter injection is the more severe as the suckling time lasts for two or three and occasionally even five or six years."

They lacked the stimuli, if they were aroused it would have been hormonal. Jacking off without any images (much less high speed pornography!) soon gets old and is very unlikely to become a habit on its own. It was regarded as morally negative, so I think guilt too would have been another deterrent preventing this from slipping into a full fledged habit.
You add pornography to the mixture, you will soon be doing it one two or even three times a day. This infects the subconscious with sexual thoughts, hurts creativity, and leaves you fatigued.

Wanting to surmount this, shows a strong will. Giving in subjects the will to heteronomy.
