mortalez: I think it would be perfect, yes she would still be sentient, and human in all ways, it would not be a stepford wife, if that were the case all people who truely love their mates are stepford wives/ husbands.
because most of what attract anyone to anyone is locked in their DNA, it is statistically possible that someone like the person I discibed is out there for me and all of you, the problem is with the billions of people on the planet and the billions ofgenetic combos on the planet there are most likely 100's of people out ther perfectly matched for you in the ways listed above, thats the good news, the bad news is he/she could be located anywhere on the globe, you could be in ardmore oklahoma ane your perfect mate could be in moscow or chile, or mumbai so odd's are you will never meet him/her and have to settle for the closest you can find ( evidenced by the fact that every couple no matter how in love they are disagree from time to time )
and also the 50% divorce rate.
so my idea would be the only way to have a pain free worry free relationship.
a perfect genetic match would make cheating, arguement, and the like a thing of the past.
You're making the assumption that perfect compatibility means no arguing, no conflict of any kind. Sort of reminds me of Mark Twain's take on Heaven - a place of perfect peace where we get everything we want - utter hell.

I'm dead certain that someone who was ideally compatible with you - one of the hundred or so near-perfect matches for you in this world - would disagree with you on occasion, and would have some tastes different from your own (for the same reason that Mark Twain realized that the popular conception of Heaven is actually hellish).
Granted, no cheating, most things in common, etc. - but not EVERYTHING in common. If that were ideal, you'd be best off dating yourself. By the way, how well do you get along with yourself? Do you have reason to believe that you'd get along with a mirror image of yourself any better?
