You've just come out of a cryogenic freezer you fell in whilst delivering pizza and the year is now 2192. Humanoid androids have been created which look human, think human and feel almost human. Consider the following situation:
You find a place which is offering the perfect android partner. This includes small, deliberate imperfections (because nobody really wants a perfect partner), but you can give them any personality/physical traits that you want (provided they don't conflict obviously - no tall-short people). Would you order a partner? Would you ever marry (i.e. get in a long term commitment kind of marry) it? Why/why not?
(money is no object)
They're exactly like humans, but they are mechanical instead of biological.
What about the situation where you meet an android normally and fell in love?

Spoiler:
Personally, I would order a partner. I think a robot wife would be superior to a human wife. Also I want a wife who doesn't really want to talk to me very much (or me to talk to her), but I'm not sure if there are any real people like that, and if there was, how would they become my wife?
The only problem is, it might feel like I'm a slave owner, which I really don't want - I would like a wife, not a servant.

No, because after our love affair, all those... moments... will be lost in time, like [small cough] tears... in... rain. Time... to die...
That's just what comes to mind with 'android' k

It probably has something to do with the fact that it's not human and I wouldn't want to have a partner who has a piece of metal for a penis.

Yes, but the only difference is the way the robot actually feels. To all other purposes it is a human. What if you found out after you already formed a relationship?

This is getting pretty complex. I will say yes, so long as they eat (if I were designing an android I'd make them able to eat, if even just for show).
