What's the difference between bisexuality and pansexuality, dare I ask?
"Pansexual" is a pretentious synonym for "bisexual".
Ohh, bitchy! Ha, no there is some distinction just very little. The term pansexual is used to describe those that have feelings for people both sexes but not in defined gender roles like the term bisexual means.
Oh wait, that does sound pretentious. Just call me a pretentious then!
Look, there are only 2 genders: Male and female. If you're attracted exclusively to the opposite gender you're an heterosexual, if you're attracted exclusively to your own gender you're a homosexual, if you're attracted to both genders regardless you're a bisexual. There are no further possible combination. If you're capable of loving someone despite their gender you're bisexual! Because it means you're capable of physical attraction to both genders.
Don't worry I know

. Its just a but of a laugh that I have with friends 'ohh, you're a better class queer are you?' (Yeah I know its wrong, but its most peoples perception of bisexuality, so I humour there silly little heads- I'm not this camp normally I swear!) most of them are bi curious at the least so its an in joke. Sorry to let such things run rampant of the internet.
At the end of the day its a nice little name for something that something that doesn't really matter, as long as YOU are happy with your orientation. Call yourself whatever you want, just have a little fun if you enjoy dabbling (aware of the asexuals in the thread).
