** Mystique, a bisexual shapeshifter who's taken on both male and female forms. She's usually a villain, but has spent time as a hero, so she can be paired with anyone of any CharacterAlignment, gender, or sexual orientation.
** Kitty Pryde as well. Often with characters named Peter, because that's a RunningGag in the Marvel Universe. And other times with her [[MentorShip mentors]].

** Storm gets her share as well, on account of attractive character design and copious doses of fetish material, FoeYay and LesYay... especially when written by Creator/ChrisClaremont.

Canonically, he is a gorgeous woman as Caroline Hill (one of his many undercover disguises), and there are several fics pairing other characters with "her." It also helps that Marcus To's drawings of Tim brought him into the ranks of a PrettyBoy with pretty hair.

** Known exceptions: Dr. Leslie Tompkins (Old enough to be his grandmother) and Batwoman (lesbian)... and that's about it. Every female who's legal and is remotely in his age range appears to be fair game, whether they're canon love interests (Barbara, Helena, Kory), someone who had a crush on him (Power Girl, Supergirl, Raven, etc), or [[CrossoverShip exist in a different medium altogether]]. Donna Troy rarely gets shipped with him - fans enjoy their friendship too much - but Donna/Dick has its fans. Even characters that are usually considered to be contemporaries of Bruce and not Dick have been shipped with Dick - examples include Dinah Lance, who once said that Dick was even more handsome than Bruce, and Zatanna Zatara, who was paired with him in WesternAnimation/YoungJustice.
