Philip Jose Farmer was obsessed with this sort of tghing. Heck, look at his titles – The Lovers, Strange Relations.

The ‘Aliens’ novels featured a romantic entanglement between an android and a human woman and it was implied in the 4th movie that at least one of the crew of the ‘Betty’ was given to having sex with androids although romance was unlikely.
The movie ‘Starman’ featured a romance between an alien in human form and a human woman.
Oh, I loved that movie. But you know, this is the second page, and unless I missed something, I seem to be the only person admitting to be a gushing fan boy, save for one or two others. So I guess I am not the only one after all. So much for the last few sentences. A :wally is me.
Anyway, are most posters here passionate about the pairing they have posted, or just “ehh”, or are they passionately “It’s just a movie/ show/ book/ comic strip/ piece of mythology.”
Which ended up in the episode where Brian falls in love with the dog that Lois’ father owns, Seabreeze. In the end, we find out the identity of the real father of the puppies (and it ain’t Brian.)
