From the article: What is a Pansexual?
The term pansexuality can mean different things to different people. I've received a lot of emails and comments about what I define pansexuality as, so now I'd like to hear from you. How do you define pansexuality, or how was the concept explained to you? Share Your Definition
Pansexual ( :
- The definition of pansexual to me is when you love someone for who they are and not what they have and the word pan is derived from greek meaning all so you have love for all no matter if they are male female or transgender .

Pansexuality in myself
- I am 14. I identified as pansexual as soon as I read the meaning. In myself I find that I become at least partially attracted to all my close friends, because I love their personalities and minds. I am fine never dating any of them, but if any of them approached me romantically I would not say no.

Its a relief
- I feel at ease knowing that there is a definition to liking someone as a person and not because Im female and have to like a male. Ive always been bothered with this line they place down the middle of genders. EVERYTHING started out as a SINGLE cell organism, neither male nor female. Our physical binding to our bodies are just years of evolution and reproducing methods. Im not gay. Im not bi. I am who I am.

Pansexuality
- Pansexuality, especially in the way that I use it in reference to my own sexual orientation, means to be emotionally and spiritually inclined towards dating members of all genders. Note the use of the word "genders" and not "sexes."

My definition of Pansexual
- I agree with the falling in love with someone for their personality rather than there gender is the best way to describe what a pansexual Is because let's face it looks faid but the personality dose not I'd rather be with someone that Is ugly but I can get along with for the rest of my life and not try to change me and love me for me as I would for them than be with someone that is hot and a real jerk sex is sex love is love sex is over rated but love is what relashionships should be about

Pansexual
- I'm 14 and I know I'm pansexual. For a while, I just told myself I was straight. Easy that way. But I could never fight that feeling of liking my friends(girls.) It wasn't about the way they looked, Of course not. People called my friend "ugly." I call them beautiful.. from who they are. From the inside they are gorgeous. I'm dating my love right now, And he's male. But I also love my friend. I know pansexual fits me because I can never like someone through looks or what is under their jeans. HEARTS, NOT PARTS

Pansexual at 18
- I came out as bisexual at 14, came out as lesbian at 16, and eventually, I came out as pansexual. It doesn't matter what gender you are. Humans are humans. They hurt and love all the same. I've had relationships with both genders and feel attracted to anyone good looking and compatible with my personality. I feel much more secure with myself and I love it!

My Own Personal Definition
- My definition of pansexuality is being more attracted to a persons personallity rather than gender.

- My sexual and gender confusion at a very early age actually led to a suicide attempt. I could not figure out why I couldn't see boys and girls the way everyone else did. The "ugly" girl was attractive because of her heart, the "cute" boy was horrid because of his cruel and snobbish behavior. Thinking of others in terms of gender took longer than others, and I was unable to assign a gender to myself at all. I knew I was a girl but I didn't feel like one, or like a boy for that matter. Bisexuality was a term that held an extreme amount of discomfort for me because of it's clear cut lines between male and female. I was confused by women that had a boyfriend and a girlfriend because to me it wasn't about the sex, but about the person. After years and extensive research I discovered two terms that helped me understand myself... "Gender Blind" and "Pansexual". Now I do not feel the need to pick between living my life as either sex, but simply as Ashley, and my life is all the better.

Pansexual and proud of it!
- I'm a man who discovered after 25 years that not only do I love sex with both genders, it really doesn't matter what orientation they feel they are.....if there is attraction between us then we can both want to have sex and feel great about it. Labels are for files- love and sex are universal and should be shared by all no matter what gender they identify with or not.

Pansexual
- Pansexuality is a delicious desire for all things sex.

My personal definition
- My personal definition is someone who has an attraction to people regardless of/to all genders and sexes. I wouldn't say that automatically means genderblind, from my own experience I do have preferences in gender and sex sometimes, though that doesn't stop me from being attracted to people no matter what their gender and/or sex is.

Definitions??
- Flickings channels and heard the term on Dr.Phil?? Never heard it before? So googled it? Read a lot of confusing definitions, then found this site! Then realised it's another description of love, but a real definition! One from the heart! Im as straight as! And truly hope to find my own definition of 'pansexual' in my lifetime x
- —Guest What's Pansexual
I'm one, too.
- I always new I love men and women, and never thought of being labeled as bisexual, but turns out, when I took a test, I realized that I am a pansexual, and feel right about it! And I'm happy to know I can who ever I want and gender doesn't matter no mater what.

- A pansexual is an individual who deserves human respect and the right to walk through life with his/her/its head held high!
