I am Pansexual.
I date all kinds of people.
From chicks that look like hip hop video models to dudes that look like Adam Lambert.
Looks are a big thing (and the first thing that draws me to the person) but personality is what makes or breaks it.
I myself am a very feminine female and I am comfortable with my gender identity but its so annoying when people try and tell you you’re...

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 masculine or feminine, and sex being the biological condition of male or female. People who are pansexual may be attracted to...

Gender & Sexual Orientation →
People often use the terms gender and sex interchangeably when talking about a person being male or female. However, the terms are very different and apply to different aspects of a person’s identity. Sex refers to the biological differences between people (chromosomes, hormonal profiles, or internal and external sex organs). Gender refers to cultural values that are either masculine or feminine...

This is something I know very well and live. It’s like breathing - second nature that when it comes time to explain it, it’s hard to do because it’s something I don’t even think about anymore. What brought it to the forefront was that I was talking to a friend of mine and he mentioned it took him sometime to realize that they were in fact separate entities. Society tries...

I knew something was up with my sexuality at a young age, simply based off my interests and the way I looked at people. The first time I labeled myself bisexual was in the seventh grade, back when people “joked” about homosexuality and often misused the term. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t doing the same, but somehow, the label felt right. I did look at girls the same way I looked at boys, and...
