Can we STOP using "pansexual" already??


In every big movie's message boards lately, someone inevitably uses "pansexual". It's like you discovered a shiny new word and just want to use it because you just learned about it. It's already tired and stupid and overused, needlessly. Enough already.

Very correct point there.

I agree, lets just revert back to the word freaks.

He he. Here’s the thing, the pansexual thing does pertain to this character. These claims have merit and they’re by no means something a group of DP fans dreamed up. For instance, along with a number of other examples of DP being fluid, Deadpool has notably flirted with Spider-Man several times in the comics. They kinda have a thing going on, know what I mean? ;) Now is it nothing more than a funny gag like Wade’s “friendship” with Colossus in the movie is? I doubt it. Those who humorously get pissed by hearing that Wade is into all genders (pump the hate breaks, Fox and Friends) will try to argue with the facts, but that’s cute.

On that note, damn Deadpool was HOT for Colossus in this movie! I wonder if he will be able to control himself and not try to f him in the future. XD Oh that’s right, Wade got Vanessa back, so... I guess Colossus can now breathe a sigh of relief. Whew!

LOVED Negasonic and Yukio’s cute coupling by the way (keep whining about it “PC crap and SJWs suck” crowd, the filmmakers aren’t going to regress just to please you).

Well there was:

'Don't fuck Collosus'
Wade telling Vanessa to get the Strapon at the beginning
The fact Deadpool is Pansexual in the comics.

reply

The best thing about Nega and Yukio, is that the film doesn't make a thing of them being two girls. They're just a cute couple and nothing more.

Unless your fetish is specifically goat gods.

Aww man, when I saw this post, I clicked on it to say just that. Kudos to you for beating me too it.

Instead of just trying to deal with the stigma of bisexuality they just invented a new fancier word. Because lets face it the two are the same.

reply

"Most people agree that bisexuality refers to feeling attracted to multiple genders, while pansexuality is attraction to all genders. There are overlaps between the two, but they are distinct. For example, someone who identifies as bisexual may feel attracted to those who are gender-fluid, male, or nonbinary but not those who are female."

reply

But there are only two... males and females. The rest is fantasy.

reply

FANTASY TO YOU PERHAPS.

reply

To me and all reasonable people who take facts over feelings.

OOOH...YOU KNOW IT'S SERIOUS WHEN DUCKWADS LIKE YOU START PICKING TEAMS.🙂

What annoys me about the current use of the word "Pansexual" is that they're trying to change its meaning.

I learned the word as a young adult, and then it had a rather broader definition - "pan" meaning all, so it literally meant "everythingsexual". A bisexual was someone who would screw male or female humans, but a pansexual was one who didn't limit themselves to humans, who might like soft fruit or inanimate objects.

Now, of course, it's been changed to "I will screw humans who are men, women, or trans", leaving no term available for those who don't limit themselves to humans.

reply

The term for that that I'd learned in my youth was omnisexual.

reply

Just call them for the fags they are.
