This is nothing less “real” about pansexuality than identifying as straight or gay.
It can also be calledomnisexualityor beinggender-blind.
Whats The Difference Between Pansexual And Bi?
A bisexual person can be attracted to a man or a woman.
A pansexual person rejects the gender binary to begin with.
They may be attracted to men, women, and non-binary people.
Who Can A Pansexual Person Date?
What Is It Like To Date A Pansexual Person?
I am a gay male while my partners pansexual.

He asks me whats wrong, but I am reluctant to share with him my jealousy.
The last thing I want is for him to feel bad about his own sexuality.
Am I prejudiced to think this way?
I just cannot help but to feel like I cannot be everything for him.

Chances are many of us have dated bi/pansexual people and not realized it.
Not everyone is out, or maybe they havent come to terms with how they feel.
I cant imagine dating him will be any different from dating a straight guy.
Soon, the nuances of sexual history became major issues.
And by nuances, what I really mean is butt stuff.
Would you ever consider doing me, instead of me always doing you?
I dont know, I said, taken aback.
Ive never done that before.
Cant you just get a strap-on and try it?
From IT HAPPENED TO ME: I Dated a Pansexual Porn Star
Im out as pansexual to my fiance.
His favorite part about it is that we can discuss hot actresses together while watching movies.
Bi and pan people are no more likely to cheat than straight people or gay people.
Cheating is a huge deal-breaker for me and Id never dream of doing it.
Being pansexual just means I have more chances to find somebody attractive.
Attraction does not mean youll cheat.
It just means you think someone is hot.
Theres a vast world of difference there.

The relationship with the person was more pertinent than their history.
Fidelity is far more important for me.

My girlfriend is pansexual.
Everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, has preferences and fantasies.
Some of them might be met and some of them might not.
It doesnt mean that theyre missing out on anything.

Anne was quite upfront with me about that on our very first date.
The fact of the matter, as in any serious relationship, was that she chose me.
She wanted to be with me.
Not with another man, not with a woman, with me.
Being pansexual or bisexual doesnt mean the person is going to be cheating on you.
It doesnt mean there cant be a meaningful monogamous relationship.
And the one after that.

Ive been involved with another bisexual guy, and it was very interesting to say the least.
I think on rare occasion that also just manifests as sexual attraction to certain guys too.
Hes also the only person Ive met who was unabashedly enthusiastic about initially realizing that he was bisexual.
As I started to transition they tried to make it work, but ultimately cut things off.
When she discovered she was also attracted to men, and fucked one, she told a lesbian friend.
Is it normal for him to have such a low sex drive?
Is it possible that hes more attracted to men?

I identify as pansexual.
Im currently dating a heterosexual boy who prefers androgynous girls and Ive never been more happy.

Are Pansexual People Real?
This is nothing less real about pansexuality than identifying as straight or gay.
To fully understand, its important to know that Ive struggled with my sexuality for quite some time.
Heres a quick summary of my almost-daily thoughts: Being attracted to a woman makes me gay, right?
What if I see a cute guy?!
Wait, that means Im straight, right?
But what about non-binary people?!
What does that mean?
You may be thinking something along the lines of, Dude, chill.
Just say youre bi or something.
That crossed my mind (and added to my struggle), but it just didnt seem to fit.
Why is it hard to understand that I will love someone regardless of gender?
Im not ignoring their sexual and gender identities, I just dont base my attraction on either of those.
I just see a person, a soul, a spirit.
So, what is pansexuality?
Pansexuality is the capability of attraction to others regardless of their gender identity or biological sex.
A pansexual could be open to someone who is male, female, transgender, intersex, or agendered/genderqueer.
Again, you may be thinking, Sooo… Youre bi?
Alright, so Ive figured out who I am and Ive just told everyone I know.
Yeah, that didnt last long.
She then told me that she had always known I wasnt straight.
I wish someone had told me sooner.
I wouldnt have had to struggle and be so confused for all these years.
But Im happy there are people who see and understand.
Much love for your openness.
It also sums up every single thing that I hope to see change in my lifetime.
If you do, I hope youre met with as much kindness and love as I have been.
In the words of Ingrid Nilsen, always remember to give yourself your best chance.
