    What do the columns, the stalactite-stalagmites grow from in this analogy.

      When a bisexual and a pansexual love each other very much… they grow together :)

        omnisexual, beats pansexual.

      Bisexuals grow from pansexuals dripping on them.

        Those are still covered under bisexual though. Technically, if you’re a woman attracted to nonbinary people, you’re heterosexual.

        And this is why we invented new and better words.

          My understanding is that bisexuals select all partners from both sexes and pansexuals select all partners from all genders

            That understanding is wrong.

            Bisexual means “homo and hetero sexual”. So, “attracted to my own gender and not-my-own gender”. Thats the classical definition.

            And then people who didn’t understand that, invented the world pansexual to mean exactly the same thing.

              Do you have a resource to confirm what you’re saying? Because homosexual means same sex and heterosexual is opposite sex. Bisexual would be both sexes by that reasoning

                “Heteros” means “different”, not “opposite”

                “hetero” means “different” not “opposite”. The source would be any dictionary mentioning the root.

                  Your snarky comment about better understanding bisexuality and pansexuality does very little for my actual request for resources.

                    https://www.wordreference.com/definition/hetero-

                    There you go. A website that says exactly the same thing I just said.
