I believe the definition for Pansexual needs to be altered a bit. Many of the definitions provided on this site, and most others for that matter, are provided by people who identify as pan and as such often come off a bit insulting to other orientations.
Yes. Pansexual represents one who is attracted to an individual regardless of gender or gender identification. Like everyone else has said, they can love/be attracted to ALL... not just male or female.
But, I highly doubt you'll meet very many bisexuals who would identify themselves any differently. The problem with "bisexual" is the word itself because it DOES imply the binary male and female. But, in practice, very few bisexual individuals actually look at love in that fashion.
A straight person, a gay person, a bisexual person, they can all date and love a transgender person and that doesn't make them not straight or not gay or not bisexual. In fact, transgendered identifying people would probably be insulted if their girlfriend or boyfriend was suddenly labeled as "not straight", that implies that the transgendered person is somehow less male or less female than someone genetically born that way.
The definitions for pansexual on here are mostly accurate, but they fail to acknowledge that all these labels are part of the problem in the first place. Just love who you want however you want and if someone asks, "what are you?" Tell them it doesn't matter... or make something up who cares.

Doug: I'm so happy I met my new boyfriend, he's really changed my life.
Suzie: Isn't he trans... I thought you were gay?
Doug: I am gay, my boyfriend is a guy, end of story.
Suzie: Oh, well I'm pansexual so I don't even think about gender, I'm basically blind to gender which is really what the world needs.
Doug: I think the world just needs less labels. Who cares if you're pan or I'm gay... I know who I love and that's what matters.

Get the Pansexual mug.Pansexual means that you can fall in love with someone, regardless of gender or how someone identifies. Most of the time, gender does not play a role in who you fall in love with, you fall in love with the person.

Get the Pansexual mug.A sexuality in which someone is attracted to all genders. This has some similarities to bisexuality, but has some differences that make the two different. Bisexual people are attracted to two or more genders (sometimes all) whereas pansexuals must be attracted to all genders. Bisexual people sometimes also are attracted more to people of one gender, whereas pansexuals experience equal attraction to all genders. Contrary to common misconception, both sexualities can be attracted to trans people. Some pansexual people may choose to tell people that they are bisexual to avoid confusion.
"I think John might be gay, he just got a boyfriend."
"He's pansexual, actually. He's also attracted to other genders."
