It’s ! A lot ask what the difference between bisexual and pansexual is, so let’s take a look at some definitions from the !
Bisexual:
Attraction to more than one gender. This attraction could be physical, romantic, and/or emotional. Bisexual people may experience different kinds of attraction to different genders, and their attractions may change over time.
Pansexual:
Attraction to all genders and/or regardless of gender. This attraction could be physical, romantic, and/or emotional. Pansexual people may also experience different kinds of attraction to different genders, and their attractions may change over time.
There’s a lot of overlap! Pansexual and bisexual are identities that overlap and have nuanced differences, and someone who is attracted to all genders or regardless of gender might also identify as bisexual. They also might also identify as asexual, or omnisexual, or any other configurations to denote attraction.
Each individual person who is attracted to more than one gender knows best what term fits them. Some choose bi, some choose pan, others choose omni, fluid, flexible, or q***r. Each of these terms are valid and deserve celebration and awareness!
