UMMMMM bisexuals are ALL OVER the Vorkosigan books! And not just in the "sexy bi girls" way. Aral: TOTALLY BI. Yes old cranky short man, get your bisexual on.
Cordelia is just made of awesome. She doesn't have to be cold or snippy or snarky or anything -- she's just awesome and she acknowledges all sides of her personality. It's one of the things I like best about LMB's writing: the battle to be "un-female" isn't there. There's never any conflict about Cordelia having to be "more manly" or "less like a woman" or anything about a "woman's place" -- it's all just so transparent. Cordelia is competent and awesome because she is CORDELIA, not because she's female (or isn't female).
