What is the difference between bisexual and pansexual?

Lets get this straight. U ask this without doing your own research?

Basically pansexual is when you like people regardless of their gender

#

It's more like being attracted to a person's personality rather than their gender identity

#

But bisexual people are attracted to two or more genders like men and women or non binary people for example

#

In short in bisexuality you acknowledge gender as a factor in attraction in pansexuality you don't

Basically to sum up what Pen said, and add a little to it myself,
Pansexuality: the feeling of liking all gender identities without different gender identities being something that matters.
Bisexuality: the feeling of liking two or more gender identities, while different gender identities being something that matters.

Yes. And to add: as an bisexual, I sometimes fall In love with someone from a certain gender and later I may fall in love with someone from a different gender. Though to me when I'm in love with someone from a specific gender, I dont feel myself attracted to any other genders at the same time. I have a friend who is pansexual and for him the gender doesn't matter. It's a slight difference, but do you get what I mean?

Well bisexuality has two meanings, two genders or two+ gender attraction. Pansexuality while similar is not quite the same. Being pan means likeing people of any gender regardless. Pansexuality is more personality lead than bisexuality. Not to say bi people don't care about personality gender simply still plays a part in who they like. However the labels are very similar and really depends on what you thinks suits you best. Hope this helped.
