This happened right after Janelle Monáe’s Rolling Stone interview, where she discussed identifying as pansexual. In 2018, “pansexual” became one of the most commonly searched words in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. This flag encompasses gender identities like non-binary, trans, intersex, agender, bigender, third gender, and more.
In 2010, the pansexual pride flag was introduced on the web with a pink stripe, blue stripe, and yellow stripe in the middle. Early social media communities were part of why the community grew so much. The current meaning of pansexuality developed out of activism and identity reclamation. The term pansexuality is used much differently today than it was back then about psycho analytics. The word is derived from the Greek prefix “pan,” meaning “all.” According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “pansexual” was first popularized in 1914 by Sigmund Freud to conclude that sex was the motivator of all things. The term pansexual has been around for a while. GLAAD defines pansexuality as someone “attracted to all genders and sexes, or regardless of gender and sex, and who identifies as pan.” They also mention that pansexuality falls under the Bisexual+ umbrella, along with other identities like queer, omnisexual, and polysexual. Pansexual means being attracted to any person regardless of their gender identity or sex. In this article, we will define what pansexuality is, how it differs from bisexuality, and what it means to be pansexual. As more celebrities (more on this later) have recently come out as pansexual, and many folks identify this way, it is essential to break down what this term means. When looking for queer representation in today’s culture, pansexuality is an orientation that is less visible than others (like straight, lesbian, gay, or bisexual).
