Possibly also her doing her damnedest to get rid of some of the backwardness. Can't you see Cordelia having young Vor women or their mothers over for tea and tactfully suggesting they teach their children about sex? I can't imagine it not being awkward as hell, but... I mean, it's kind of consistent with the textual evidence that Cordelia & Alys advocated for replicator use over body birth (at least among Vor women; this comes up in ACC I think.)

(I definitely think Miles and Gregor and Elena and Ivan were subject to The Talk. Though Miles did spend some teenaged time on Beta, hmm, maybe he got The Talk before he left.)
