What is pansexual? Layla Moran

Phoenix precisely, also my query about whether or not the prefix pan encompasses all sexual beings.

Doodledog I care not that this woman is in a relationship, sexual or otherwise, with another woman; however, if the term pan includes under age children and other sentient sexual beings, then it is of concern.

I am not sneering. It's a story given to the papers to distract from the fraud issues relating to laylas partner.

can't look my pans in the eye eve again...LOL lol

love0c howling! at your post LOL lol............

Now, please bear with me here, but "pan" in the (I think) Greek sense, means "all", as in panorama, panacea etc . (I appreciate that I could be wrong with this)

So, logically, "pansexual" could be taken to mean having sexual inclinations to all, which would include all genders and all ages.

Perhaps not an appropriate term? Although it could be the devil's own job to come up with another more suitable one!

I believe in Scotland pansexual means being infatuated with a pan loaf.

The sneering on this thread and lack of respect for the preferences of others is very unpleasant. LM is is a relationship with someone who, presumably, makes her happy. Why not just wish them well and let them get on with it ?

trisher, well if he is, he is going to be disappointed!!!

love0c Was he hoping????

Who makes these things up?
Is there a degree course in it?

Callistamon, loved the Faraway Tree, so it seems Enid wasn't so regressive after all, ahead of her time I'd say, Saucepan man person being a trailblazer for pansexuals

I'm going to echo Monica, and say, who cares! None of my business where anyone else's sexual orientation lies, I understand why she's declared she's in a relationship with a woman, so she isn't "outed" but I wish well known people would stop regaling us with the ins and outs of their personal lives, particularly when they have to put such obscure labels on it, what's wrong with bi-sexual.

loveOc your husband's comment, really funny

I so understand your comments about the Faraway Tree callistamon, it was the most amazing tree in the world.
Petunia was obviously in tune too with her reference to saucepans.
I always thought that saucepan man was a little off the wall.

Just read this in the news and I said to my husband 'what on earth does Pansexual mean?'. He said 'it means you like sex in the kitchen amongst the pans'. Ha ha. This post might get removed!!

pansexual

The word pan as a prefix means universal, all-encompassing so presumably pansexual means being attracted to any sexual being, not necessarily just human beings.

It would exclude saucepans and trees.

Do you think he's developing an attraction like yours?
I do hope so, Janipat!!

I had never heard of Layla Moran until this.

This thread started at 10.00am this morning and it is already up to 4 pages. What is the fascination in the subject.

I do not give a toss what people are/think they are, or do, as long as they do not do it in the street and frighten the horses.

perhaps she announced it like that, so that we etc would discuss like this, and not notice that her latest squeeze was ex head of Lib Dem press / PR, and had to leave for having faked an email.
news management, eh.

Ah, Callistemon, my GDS3 was fascinated by a photo of a little girl hugging an ancient oak and asked me why he (sic) was splatted up against that tree.

Later that day we found him hugging a drainpipe.

I used to fancy Aladdin - the Disney version, then I moved on to the more mature Flynn Ryder from Tangled!

It probably explains my liking for trees
and sheep (in the nicest possible way, I hasten to add, living as I do in Wales).

Interesting that a few people think it’s linked to the fact that she’s a Lib Dem. does that apply to other political parties then? Are all Green Party MPs attracted to broccoli and sprouts?

I am always curious, need to have something answered.
