Pansexuality is sexual, romantic or emotional attraction towards people regardless of their sex or gender identity. Pansexual people may refer to themselves as gender-blind, asserting that gender and sex are not determining factors in their romantic or sexual attraction to others.

This attraction includes people who do not identify with any gender (agender). While pansexuality does not mean you are attracted to everyone, it’s more accurate to think of it as someone who is open to being sexually attracted to anyone. Many pansexual people describe themselves as being attracted to people based on personality, moral character, and not gender. Meaning they could be attracted to someone nonbinary, binary, male, female, or any other gender.

Common misconceptions are that pansexuality automatically includes “forms of attraction such as bestiality, pedophilia, and paraphilias such as objectophilia,” which is a pretty big (and offensive) leap to believe that a person who likes all gender identities in humans would be interested in a deer or a car engine. The other myth is that if you date a heterosexual cisgender person monogamously, you’re no longer pansexual, which is also not true because (1) you’d like all gender identities, remember? and (2) who you date or do not date currently does not restrict your sexual identity.

She's pansexual, which means she's open to love anyone as long as their human regardless of their identity.
