Line 3:
'''Pansexuality''' (often shortened to pan) is the attraction to people regardless of gender, and as a result, they are attracted to all genders. Pansexual people may be described as being "gender blind" showing that gender is not a factor in their attraction to a person.
== Pansexual vs. Omnisexual ==
Pansexuality is often compared to [[Bisexual|bisexuality]], [[Omnisexual|omnisexuality]], or other [[multisexual]] identities. While those sexualities may be attracted to all or many genders, they typically feel a difference between genders. This can manifest in having a preference for certain gender(s). It can also manifest as feeling like the act of being attracted to a certain gender feels different than the act of being attracted to other genders. (For example, a bisexual person may feel like the act of being attracted to a woman feels different then being attracted to a man, though they do not have preference for men or women.) Omnisexuals and other mulitsexuals may also find certain traits only attractive on certain genders. ▼
Pansexuality is often compared to [[Bisexual|bisexuality]], [[Omnisexual|omnisexuality]], or other [[multisexual]] identities. It is very similar to omnisexual as they both involve the attraction to all genders, however one can make a distinction between them if they wish.

Pansexuality, on the other hand, does not feel any internal difference between genders or feels like any difference felt between genders is irrelevant. Although, some pansexual people may still have a gender preference, this is not caused by an internal difference felt in attraction, or is so minor that one feels it is irrelevant.
