What is Pansexuality?

What is Pansexuality

Pansexuality is a sexual, romantic or emotional attraction towards others regardless of their sex or gender identity. Pansexual people my refer to themselves as Omnisexual or Gender-Blind, asserting that gender is not a determing factor for their romantic or sexual attraction to others. 

What is Panromantic? 

Panromantic is pretty much the same as Pansexual however without the sexual attraction of another. Attraction is not dependent on gender; pan people are attracted to the person before anything else. However, this doesn’t mean they’re attracted to anyone and everyone!

What’s the difference between pansexual and bisexual?

Pansexuality differs from Bisexuality but the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Being Bisexual means being attracted to more than one gender, whereas Pansexual means being attracted to people regardless of gender.

Pansexuality and Bisexuality do not conflict one another, some people believe that Pansexuality better includes people of all genders while others are happy identifying as Bisexual. It’s not uncommon for some Bisexual people to also identify as Pansexual, and vice versa.

Pansexuality is included under the Bisexual umbrella, which covers anyone who experiences sexual or romantic attraction to more than one gender.

What are the Colours of the Pansexual Flag?

The Pansexual Pride Flag was designed as a symbol for the pansexual community to use. The flag has been found on various internet sites since mid-2010. Created by Jasper V, It is similar to the LGBT Gay Pride Flag which is used as a symbol for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and anyone else in the community. The flag is used to increase visibility and recognition for the pansexual community, and to distinguish it from bisexuality.
