dr. b. doesn't need a -wife-. he needs a -keeper-. if he could get a
really trustworthy business manager, and a bullying sort of
housekeeper/valet: sir, your new clothes are ready for you. and don't you
think you should have a bath first, sir? :) then the man wouln't, as you
put it, need a wife!
picking up after dr borgos might be financially rewarding, but there are
lots of galactics who think women on barrayar are under-using thier
potential, and many of them likely remember to look both ways before
crossing the street - which mark asked kareen to do , as i recall. surely
martya can do better, once she has the idea of non-barayar men being
potential mates?
personality counts.
