    I mean i'm not great on pansexallity either .But
    heterosexual people (not all ) aren't very smart when it comes to thinking outside of the heterosexuality box because ya know they think everyone on the planet is straight like them and if we aren't something is wrong with us .:rolle:

    I'll make a term how deep is you're heterosexual box anyone get it ?

    I don't even know what it is. Well, I do, sadly, but I find it a pointless extension of bisexuality.

    Well it's not pointless because a person who is attracted to male and female is bi. Pans are also attracted to not only men and women but transgender people. So there is a difference.

    Pansexuality is when no gender matters when dating. What matters is the person. With bisexuals most of the time they mainly date cis males and females or transgender folks. But as a pansexual you would date someone who's agender, genderqueer, bigender etc. Etc.

    YES! Thank you. Look, my boyfriend is bisexual and if you tell him bisexuals only like cis people, he'd happily disagree with you.

    I mean, what's really different about pansexual that bisexual can't explain? An attraction to non-binary genders too? I can accept that maybe but stop telling me that pansexual means you like "men, women and transgenders" like so many pansexuals I know keep telling me. I had a trans friend tell me that and I was like "but you identity as male! You're not some third gender. You're basically saying trans people aren't really their genders."

    Well ok so I didn't explain it correctly I agree but compared to what my friend said. I'm sorry of I offended anyone I didn't mean to do that so I'm sorry drwinchester if I've offended u at all because I don't have anything against anyone on here or anything to do with labels.

    I have to agree with the other comments above me I don't see difference either I mean trans people aren't a third gender they can be male or female too.
    Plus bisexual and pansexuals aren't the only people that date trans gender people straight folks do , lesbians do and gay men do too .
    So I'm wondering to like Austin said who really decided bisexuals only dated cis gender folks ?:confused:

    Ya sorry she doesn't have auto correct she basically was saying a pansexual person will have sex with anything because everything turns them on. She was referring to goat shit as a turn on. :dry:

    Isn't it like this?

    Bisexual: Attracted to more than one gender.
    Pansexual: Attracted to all genders.

    By identifying as bi, one neither confirms nor denies an attraction to certain genders. Bisexuals can therefore also be attracted to all genders.

    By identifying as pan, one confirms an attraction to all genders. Pansexuals can still have preferences, so I wouldn't say pan equals gender blind.

    So, it basically just comes down to what label feels more right to oneself, I'd say.

    I thought it was like this, correct me if I'm wrong.

    Bisexual: can attracted to male and females (sometimes more)

    Pansexual: can be attracted to male, female, and ALL non binaries, as long as they find them attractive.

    Is this right?

    Having attempted to read the embedded image, I think it's a miracle you understood any particular part of what she does and doesn't know at all.
