I didn't realise you were a nonbinarian.

I believe he's possibly hexadecimal..

Does it matter? I've been pretty open about that for some time, on this very thread.

Likewise my pansexuality.

I believe Andy told me that I don't exist because of that, but I'm not in the habit of drudging up old pish to make some sort of warped point.

You exist,

your self interpretation is something else.

I guess i missed it. What's the difference between bisexual and pansexual? Given that there are only two sexes.

It's attraction to other people, regardless of their physical appearance.

So someone could have a body to die for, but if they're a total monster of a human then it's an instant no go.

So bisexual then.

If that's how you want to view it, then sure.

How i "want to view it" ? There are two sexes. There are three sexual orientations: homo, hetero and bi.

So what purpose does the word; 'pansexual' serve? Apart from identifying a person using the word as a member of the genderist movement?

You could argue, i suppose, that, in your world, attraction to all the genders is a thing. But gender and sex are not interchangeable. So the word you're looking for is 'pangenderal'. Surely? Make it make sense.

Bi sexuality is a term for exactly what you're describing, whereas pan covers how other people may choose to identify (trans, fluid etc). It's more of a respect thing than anything else I suppose.

I'd disagree that there are only three sexual orientations, but that's a whole different thing.

What other sexual orientations are there beyond hetero, homo and bi?
