Pansexual

Everything you need to know about pansexuality, what it means and what it means to identify as pan.

What does pansexual mean?

Pansexuality refers to a sexual orientation where a person is attracted to individuals regardless of their gender or gender identity. This means that someone who is pansexual can experience romantic or sexual attraction to people of any gender, including male, female, non-binary, and genderfluid individuals. The key idea behind pansexuality is that gender does not play a role in determining whether someone is attracted to a person.

It is often summed up as being “attracted to people, not genders,” or as our founder Jake Hook says, “hearts not parts!”

While this is similar to bisexuality (attraction to two or more genders), pansexuality emphasizes the inclusivity of all genders and may be used by individuals who feel that their attraction is not limited by gender at all.
