    ...and these are my pots. No, no spreading of olive oil allowed.

    Introduced to the site a while a ago by the close friend I came out, but only figured I should join now. Been browsin' and carousing, lovin' what I've seen thus far.

    So, I'mma pansexual, increasingly realized this as I grew up. Knew I wasn't really gay, nor was I really straight either... but when I delved into bisexuality never felt like what I would describe what I felt like either. Que one day two years ago I run into the term 'pansexual', and it just... snapped, clicked with me. I'm into people.

    Anyhoo, despite being pretty clear to myself, I didn't really tell anybody until recently. Had these weird shivery feels when I did come out, but it was relieving to actual tell somebody. Hyaaah.

    Ahaha, what a story Doofus. That's me.

    Welcome to the website, I am a new member as well, but welcome anyways! I have a question for you -- for YOU personally, what is the defining difference between pansexuality and bisexuality? I really don't want to trust wikipedia with this information, because it lacks a personal aspect to it.

    Hi! I'm a new member too and wanted to say hello. I use the term bisexual if I don't want to give someone the long story, but while I generally lust after my own gender I fall in love with people on a gender-blind basis. Sometimes I think I'd be better off describing myself as just sexual rather than attaching a prefix! So yay for pansexuality. It's great that you are feeling so good about coming out :slight_smile:
