Someone I follow did something similar and I thought it was a good idea! (If you answered on another site, please don't answer again! Thank you!)

Before I answer the sexuality one, how do you define the difference between Bisexual and Pansexual? I'm probably one or the other, but I've heard so many different answers on what those mean that blatantly contradict each other that now it's sort of a "depends, let me check whose rulebook we're using first" question.
I think it's more of a "what do you personally identify as/call yourself?" question. I figure, for me personally, I could be attracted to anyone regardless of their gender or sex. So I guess I'm pan?? But like, bisexual is a huge umbrella term for anybody who isn't just interested in one gender.
The big difference I see between bisexuality and pansexuality is that "pansexual" usually refers to people who don't see gender as a defining factor in their attraction to someone, while "bisexual" usually refers to people who are attracted to many genders, but still keep the gender of a person in mind? Idk. I'm one or the other. Doesn't really matter to me though, haha.
I think I answered bisexual when I filled out the poll, but I consider it kind of interchangeable.
Personally I consider bisexual to be attracted to more than one including your own, but not necessarily all, and pansexual to be attraction to ALL genders and/or gender not being a determining factor in attraction.
In the same vein, polysexual is an attraction to multiple genders, not necessarily including your own.
HOWEVER as Rivkah said below, everyone's definition is different and how you choose to identify yourself is what matters most c:

The poll to 'gender' is borked, and keeps bringing me back to this journal. Also, no 'Straight' option for orientation?
