Bisexuals people, would you consider yourself as pansexual?
 

So do the TIBB's Bi's consider themselves pansexual (attracted to both female and males and any gender identiy?

"Pansexuality may be considered a sexual orientation in its own right or a subset of bisexuality, to indicate an alternative sexual identity.[3][6][7] Because pansexual people are open to relationships with people who do not identify as strictly men or women, and pansexuality therefore rejects the gender binary, the "notion of two genders and indeed of specific sexual orientations",[3][7] it is often considered a more inclusive term than bisexual.[8][9] To what extent the term bisexual is inclusive when compared to the term pansexual is debated within the LGBT community, especially the bisexual community.[9]"

I'm bisexual but kind of would consider myself Pansexual as I have fancied Transgender etc. people.

I'd never identify as a pansexual, I find the term a bit cringeworthy in all honesty.

I consider myself to be trisexual. Because I'll try anything once.

yeah, I thought it was considered bisexual to like other types of people apart from men and women.

I thought Pansexual was when you love people but don't want to have a sexual relationship.

Not one of these threads again...

They are two completely different things. The clues are in the name, bi means two (i.e. the gender binary) so bisexuals are attracted to both men and women.

Pansexuals can be attracted to people outside of the gender binary, and see gender as irrelevant when it comes to attraction. Since bisexuals are only attracted to two genders, gender is not irrelevant to them.

Why are there so many of these threads of late? Why must people have to define themselves with any sexuality and put so much focus on doing so?

I agree we should be free to love who we want, regardless of gender.

I 100% agree.

For all my views on gender and sexuality, ironically I believe they shouldn't be a thing because it'd save so many problems :laugh:

If people didn't have to categorise themselves into sexualities when it's a spectrum anyway, and the same thing with gender, then the world would be a lot more inclusive, liberal and tolerant place.

Act how you want to act, dress how you want to dress, like who you want to like. Live and let live. Humans' obsessions with categorising things to make sense of them is sadly one of the most detrimental things to society.

I'm straight with many kinks and an overall curve.

I always thought that pansexuals were obese greedy bastards who were in love with the frying pan.

People are obsessed with saying "Stop using labels and gender stereotypes it's offending me" only to then go off and invent 50 new genders and sexualities for Facebook. Standing up against labels whilst creating more of them and exacerbating the problem.

God, get over yourself already. No one cares that much about where you stick your genitals.

is everyone just bloody sex obsessed here or whit?


:umm2:

ben, you wise old man :clap1::clap1:

You just don't like labels because you'd need a new one every day. :idc:

Marsh has returned!

The only reason I did this thread as being Bisexual I never knew it was against 'the label' to be attracted to trans etc. people.

So I would consider myself Pansexual now.

omg

No because it's a poncey way of saying bisexual.

Sounds like a USA term

Is it the same as liking pan salt too much?

There's a difference between 'labels' (self-descriptors) and insults disguised as labels.

I don't understand the 'dont label things omg!' mentality because if someone wants to define their sexuality in a way that makes it easier to understand for other people, then what's the issue really?

Because they are the new tibb young ones

I don't have an issue tbh. I don't care.

I was talking more about the people who seem to "campaign" on social media about getting rid of labels and the need to categorise everyone into groups but then they are the ones making the gender list on Facebook longer than War and Peace. :shrug:

Pansexuality undermines bisexuality. It makes bisexual people look ignorant for not being interested in "non-genders" when the term itself says bisexual. Regardless of your gender identity you are born either male or female and that's what bisexuality represents. It has nothing to do with gender.

To be fair, I think they're two different groups of people. And both of them have very valid ideas

In an ideal world we'd be rid of all kinds of categorisation, you could just like who you want to like and it wouldn't need a label, and gender wouldn't need to be a thing, you could just act how you want to act and people wouldn't have to be segregated because of it, but sadly the human obsession with labelling things to make sense of them means that isn't going to happen anytime soon, so in the meantime the best course of action is to make labels as inclusive and open as possible

People with label makers will be fuming

As someone who identify as pansexual i find this thread disgraceful and clear attention seeking thing.

You cant decide to just become a sexuality.

You can decide to label yourself pansexual

This is a fair point but the 'sexual' part of the term refers to the sexual attraction part of your sexuality, not 'sex' as in biological sex

Regardless, pansexuality is still a thing. Bisexuals are attracted to men and women - or males and females if you prefer, that's probably a better way of putting it. And pansexuals are gender blind, seek relationships on personality alone and are not just attracted to people who fall on the gender binary. I wouldn't say it infers bisexuals are ignorant at all, you can't help who you're attracted to and if males and females are your thing that's fine. If you're attracted to people outside of the gender binary, you are not bisexual.

Bi means two, and there are more than two genders.

Labels are stupid, like who you like and sleep with who you want to sleep with, it doesn't need explaining to anyone
