PANSEXUALITY

(Redirected from Pansexual)

'Pansexuality' (sometimes referred to as 'omnisexuality'[1]) is a sexual orientation characterized by the potential for aesthetic attraction, romantic love and/or sexual desire for people regardless of their gender identity or biological sex. This includes potential attraction to people who do not fit into the gender binary of male/female implied by bisexual attraction. Pansexuality is sometimes described as the capacity to love a person romantically irrespective of gender. Some pansexuals also assert that gender and sex are meaningless to them. The word pansexual is derived from the Greek prefix ''pan-'', meaning "all".
The adjective pansexual may also be applied to organizations or events. In this context, the term usually indicates an openness to the involvement of people of all genders and sexual orientations in said organization/event, not that everyone involved is, or should be, themselves pansexual.

Romance, attraction and preferences


The term ''pansexual'' generally is used for people who do not classify their sexuality according to a person's sex, but rather their gender. They believe that there is a set difference between sex and gender—gender being the socially constructed condition of being male or female, and sex being the biological condition of male or female.
People who are pansexual may be attracted to various forms of romance, and may be aroused by various acts of sex on a carnal level. Some suggest that pansexuality is more accurately described by its adepts: human- or person-oriented. Despite a pansexual person's fluid sexuality. In some cases someone who is defined as strictly hetrosexual can engage in sexual activities with someone of the same sex in which there is a close relationship but with no desire to do so with another of the same sex. It can be an intense sexual experience because it's an isolated relationship formed by a rare friendship that others can never achieve with a separate or combined meaning for each and is shared only with those involved. It is a balance that's added as a separate part to being heterosexual.

Pansexual sex


Many people who identify as pansexual may associate with people of all sexual orientations, but are not necessarily interested in sex ''with'' people of all sexes or genders. For some people who are pansexual, biological sex is a secondary factor, something that will be discovered if and when sexual interaction takes place.
People who are pansexual usually consider any sexual act acceptable as long as it is consensual, including less mainstream activities like BDSM.[2] However, pansexuals may not necessarily be interested in those activities themselves.
