FAQ’s

What is Pansexual/Panromantic?

Pan is a root word meaning all: Pan is the attraction to people of all genders, or where gender of the person of attraction has no weigh on whether or not the pan person is attracted to them. Pansexual is the sexual attraction to all genders and  Panromantic is the romantic attraction to all genders. Pansexuals and Panromantics see gender as a characteristic about a person rather than a deciding factor in who they are or are not attracted to.

Can Pansexuals/Panromantics have a preference?

Yes people who are pan are allowed to have a preference. 

When should I come out to my family/friends?

When you feel comfortable. It’s not a race to come out. Your sexuality is your business and you should come out when you’re ready.

When is Pan Pride Day?

December 8th

When is Pan Day of Visibility?

May 24th

What are all the genders?

Gender is just as diverse as sexuality. With sexuality there isn’t just gay and straight there’s pansexual, asexual, greysexual etc. In other words it’s nearly impossible for me to list them all because there’s so many ways a person can identify. I will attempt to explain it in the simplest way I can. Of course there’s male and female, some people identify as both (bigender), some identify with neither (agender), some can vary and identify as male sometimes and female other times (gender fluid).

My friend is pansexual/panromantic are they attracted to me?

No not nessecarily. Just because everyone can be attractive doesn’t mean everyone is. 

Can I be Pansexual/romantic and demisexual/romantic at the same time?

yes you can identify as pansexual demisexual or panromantic demiromantic. This is a thing. 

I am pan but I identify to other people as gay/bi etc is that okay? 

yes this is fine. How you identify to yourself and how you identify to other people is your own choice. This is in no way offensive and is totally your decision. You are not less pansexual or panromantic by doing so and you’re not insulting people who identify as these orientations. How you identify is your choice and no one else’s and no one should say anything about that.
