Wayne Brady comes out as pansexual and opens up to PEOPLE about his long road to self-discovery and how his daughter and ex-wife are showing him acceptance
It really gets under my skin when folks frame bisexuality as bigoted pansexuality.
Edit: I’m not saying he wasn’t making a lighthearted joke and I’m not even really saying he shouldn’t have said it. I’m just sad that for a lot of people this may be the first time they hear about pansexuality and assume it means that people who say they’re bi are transphobic, enbyphobic, or something else.
Yeah tons of people use the label “bisexual” even though by strict definition they might actually be pan. And that’s totally fine, you don’t always have to use the most specific terminology.
*word-forming element meaning “all, every, whole, all-inclusive,” from Greek pan-, combining form of pas (neuter pan, masculine and neuter genitive pantos) “all,” from PIE pant- “all” (with derivatives found only in Greek and Tocharian).

I probably lean harder pan than bi, but the bi flag is too nice to not like it.
I’m not a pansexual because I refuse to fuck people with green skin, regardless of gender status.
We all have our types I guess.
Exactly. Unfuckable.
Sulley tho…
What about an olive hue to their skin complexion? Why do you love everyone except Mediterranean people?
They don’t appreciate your absurd twist of the term olive complexion, but I do.
And it’s because the Mediterraneans won’t nut up and reestablish the Phoenician Empire.

Good luck trying to eradicate every word with multiple meanings from the English language, I guess
