Helena Chavarria
: I think 'who is bisexual' sounds the most natural. For example, 'This is my cousin, who is bisexual/a teacher/a doctor/my best friend/a pain in the neck, etc.'

Adoración Bodoque Martínez
: Or "This is (name), a bisexual", as bisexual can also work as a noun. In the original text there should also be a comma after the name.

Robert Forstag
: For me, the most natural rendering would split the Spanish into two sentences, as follows: Here's XXX. She's bisexual. "Bi" would be even more natural for "bisexual."

"Here we have XXX," especially in this kind of context, sounds condescending.
example: Betty la fea = Ugly Betty (famous TV show)
Maria Gomez bisexual
Bisexual Maria Gomez...
