Pansexuality
Hi! Previously we talked about bisexuality. Today, we'll talk about pansexuality.
Let's assume you randomly choose one individual from each gender that exists and make them stand in a line and glance at them from side to side. Well, a cinematographer would say that you're panning your vision from left to right, and that is how we'll visualize the term "pansexual".
A literal dictionary definition of bisexuality, due to the prefix bi-, is a sexual or romantic attraction to two sexes (males and females) or two genders (men and women). Pansexuality, however, composed with the prefix pan-, is the sexual attraction to a person of any sex or gender. Using these definitions, it is defined differently by explicitly including intersex, transgender, or outside the gender binary.
This identity is pretty common even though the term is lesser than or equally known than "bisexual." It is a sexual, romantic, or emotional attraction towards people regardless of their sex or gender identity. Pan people often refer to themselves as gender-blind, asserting that gender and sex are not the grounds to determine their romantic or sexual attraction to others.
It is a sexual orientation in itself or sometimes can be referred to as an offspring of bisexuality. Pans reject the binary gender as they are attracted to people who leniently consider themselves as "men" or "women" or even don't. This identity is a lot more inclusive than bisexuality.
