    Bisexual.
    I have original drawing of her with two friends "vacations" of the japanese comics that've been modified for American and European market.
    I can't upload them without getting banned and offend someone I guess, so I' don't. But know that's frankly kinky ! :)

    That's OK I understand, now when you say "vacations", are you talking about the "e-sex" thing? The e-sex is panel is for cyborgs, when they link each other they  masturbate or something to stimulate the nerves for pleasure and all those connected can feel it.

    She's actually a cyborg and well we're curious, because the technology in her future is so advanced that you can replace a missing limb with a mechanical that is covered in living tissue with nerves which actually means you can feel the sense of touch again. And besides this is not a big issue with the sexual identity thing since sex feels good because it's nature's way for us to reproduce to keep the species alive.

    @Comicman: Nothing wrong with being curious! one of people's biggest problems nowadays is that nobody WANTS to know ANYTHING! even when it isn't that disturbing...

    I say she's bi.  I've seen the pic Devil Tiger is talking about and it is fairly erotic, but also having watched the movie and the cartoon adaptation thereof, I have noticed that she was showing a lot of interest in the males she was around as well.   
     
    Maybe its a side effect of being the cyborg.  Sure, you don't have your body but it can feel and everything, but since its not you some thing get lost in the transfer: like defined sexuality.  None of the cyborgs ever really have intercourse, either, so much as they do the e-sex panel thing, and that seemed a lot like the "sex" scene in Demolition Man to me anyway. 
     
    Either way, whatever she does is really her own business and that of her creators, readers and fans.

    Full cyborgs are technically no longer 'gendered' in a physical sense.  In that way, most are technically "mono-sexual".  Partners are more likely chosen based on personality and technological compatibility, rather than physical traits or attractiveness (which can be fabricated).
     
    She likes who she likes, and in the series she has a number of female friends outside of the workplace.

    @king_of_hearts_11987: @comicman: @the_devil_tiger:

    I was wondering if she can even have physical contact sex plus I do not remember her having nipples or anything else in the movie or anime, in the movie she says she can not feel anything, I do not know if it’s the same in the anime

    Maybe she can still have digital sex almost like avatar in a deleted scene in from avatar when they have sex the connect there hair plug things.

    I've only seen the '95 movie and the first several episodes of SAC so far; but I know that in the former, the Major does have nipples. They're simply the same color as her breasts + unshaded, so they're only visible from angles that show their protrusion. I remember that the famed opening-credit scene has one such angle.
