Ah, thank you. Camila Perez. I think I’ve come across her profile before. I knew she was either Latina or Eurasian. She’s purty.

Understandable...but it still leaves Robin in the lurch. Were there any criminal elements (male or female) that had an ‘attraction’ towards him?

Yes. In one episode, Robin makes a comments about Catwoman's legs, and Batman suggests that he's growing up. In the clip here he has an attraction to a Henchgal of Catwoman's played by Leslie Gore (I know... I know...).

Thanks...but from the clip, that wasn’t the REAL ROBIN. His personality had been taken over - so as to make him a man.

So perhaps we’ll never know.
