The class discussion on Monday didn't really open my eyes to seeing differently, my opinions on sexuality had stayed the same - it just made me realize how many people at ACAD have either the same and/or similar opinions to me. I also had never realized how much social media has a say on this topic; like Facebook asking you to determine your gender and sexuality.
I am very open towards people's gender/identity/sexuality and have no problem with accepting any of it at all; but the only sexuality that confuses me is the label of being a "pansexual".
Pansexual, as many of my pansexual friends have described to me means "no specific gender sexuality; but falls in love based on emotional attraction to any gender".
This confuses me because if there are technically only 'two' types of gender - wouldn't that just make you bisexual? Doesn't everyone pick their significant other or companion due to some sort of emotional attraction? I don't have anything against it, but I'm just a little bit confused. I'd be totally willing to open my mind to anyone who wants to explain it further to me.
