I went on a date in high school with a guy who had something wrong with his leg - I'm not sure if he had a prosthesis or not, but there was something mechanical going on. Anyway, we went to a dance with a group of other kids, and the date was a disaster. It wasn't because of his leg - it was because he had a friend that was a complete dickhead. That was our one and only date. He was actually a very nice guy and is one of the few people from high school I'd actually care to run into somewhere.
I'm married, but if I wasn't I don't think it would bother me to date someone with a prosthesis. I think I'd be curious at first and worry about offending them by asking questions, but I wouldn't dismiss them because of a missing body part.
