So if straight people can rock their own thread, why not the types who don't consider gender when their looking for relationships or what-have-you?
My ideas on pansexuality can be summed up in a single interaction I had with a friend in which we were discussing sexualities and pansexual in general. When I talked about seeing love outside of gender, he said, "Yeah, you know if my best friend was a girl, I'd totally fucking marry him. So I see what you mean." I didn't know how to respond. I wanted to say, "Uhm... I'm...sorry that you... feel like you can't." Instead I just nodded and kept on with the discussion.
And I was just thinking the whole time--man. I feel for you. In another time and place, your best friend is your soul mate. But hey--that's the way sexualities are. They open and close doors to romance, love, and sweaty one night stands. Pansexual is the one that flings open the doors and says "ALRIGHT. Take off your gender-tags. Let's see what we got." Who all here share that same sentiment?
Or, if someone here is straight/gay/lesbian/bisexual, what would you do if you found yourself in a situation where someone outside your sexuality qualified for every single thing you'd like to see in a prospective partner? Would you be open to being flexible with your sexuality? Yes? No? Or as someone who's never been straight, am I asking a really non-point question?

I preemptively thank you for considering me to be a person open to different ideas and criticism and ofr any respect you're willing to show for someone who believes in something you may not agree with.
What follows was my original OP--as misguided in explanation as it was.

Now. Before the question gets brought up, because it will, there's lots of people who aren't sure of the distinction between Bisexual and Pansexual. Basically, so far as I can tell, there are two ways people seem to differentiate between them. Don't take this too literally, because at the end of the day, you are the only person who can define your sexuality.
A: Bisexuals see male/female romantic partners and appreciate them for their expression of their maleness/femaleness (whether it's fem, butch, etc), while pansexuals don't particularly care either way.
B: Pansexuality also covers the realm of transgender, intersex, androgynous, while bisexuality sticks to the male/female genders.
Again, these things are not concrete declarations, but rather just one perspective on the bisexual/pansexual conundrum. I invite you to do your own research to answer your own questions if you have them. The internet has a fuck-ton knowledge. Don't ask a question you can't google yourself, in other words.
And besides--this is just to see who's in the same mindset. So reveal thyselves. C'mon. Speak up. What you got going on? What's your story?
