Someone who experiences sexual and/or romantic attraction to all gender identities and sexes. In other words, pansexual people see gender ID and sex as simply characteristics, rather than a defining factor in whether or not they are attracted to somebody.

Not to be confused with bisexuality (attraction to two gender identities/sexes) or polysexuality (attraction to some but not all genders/sexes).
Because Pamela could easily see herself being attracted to and having a long-term relationship with anybody, regardless of gender or sex, she decided to identify as pansexual.

Someone who is attracted (can be sexually, can be platonically) to everyone, regardless of gender. For example, a pansexual person would be attracted to males, females, transgenders, hermaphrodites, and others of any sexual orientation.

A pansexual individual is someone who experiences sexual attractions to people regardless of gender identity, in practice this is very similar to bisexuality.

Pansexuality differs with bisexuality in that most people who identify as pansexual are attracted to people in trans and nonbinary communities. This doesn't mean that some bisexuals aren't (many actually are and use pansexual and bisexual interchangebly) however some bisexuals are attracted to be only cis gender males and females.

In practice bisexualty and pansexuality overlap

In practice pansexuality may also vary in that it includes more than two genders but not all (despite its prefix meaning all). For instance, because of its inclusion of nonbinary and transgender individuals some people who are exclusively attracted to nonbinary and trans people may still identify as pansexual despite the fact they are not attracted to cis people. This contradiction exists because it is impossible to label every variation in human sexuality. The best way to know is to ask. Pansexuals like bisexuals can also have preferences.

Also while pansexual is defined as a sexual attraction, colloquially people use it to include romantic attractions as well. Its often times used to mean panromantic, while this is incorrect, the concept of romantic orientation is not as widely known as sexual orientation and most use it out of convience or out of genuine ignorance, there is a difference.

Pansexuality is when a person is able to be attracted to another person regardless of gender (nonbinary, female, male, gender fluid, transgender etc.), sexuality (straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, pansexual, demi sexual etc.) or looks. This also means that people who are pansexual will date people based off of their personality and not just looks.
I'm pansexual, which means I like anyone regardless of gender, sexuality or looks.
