More to the point, it's a term that has been meaningfully used by multiple communities over a long period of time.

By the way, I would never use it to describe myself. I'm clearly a butt-pirate.

Don't use the term "pansexual" if you don't want to. Keep believing that people who use it should be fucking a flower if that makes you feel happy and settled. But you're not going to undo decades of academic queer theory with an adherence to the original Webster dictionary -- that's the same technique used by ultra-fundamentalist Christian home schoolers to preserve a sense of connection to the "real meanings of things, when we had values". The home schoolers, I guess, are raising the bar of language use.

Transgendered people fit into one of those categories, unless we're going to treat them like they're alien beings and require a third category to include them. I think that's condescending beyond belief.

Saythatscool has time and again proven he's not only open-minded but intellectually independent, and I for one find that vastly preferable to the sheep in tranny's clothing who mandate we all adhere to some PC dictionary that needs updating every time the wind blows or someone gets bored of being part of a minority that, thankfully, grows more accepted by the day.

Comparing him -- and by extension, the rest of us -- to "ultra-fundamentalist Christian home schoolers" is not only outrageous but will also ultimately undermine your cause. We're not the enemies, no matter how much you seem to wish that were the case.

Ah think yer misundersexualizing this issue. Let's get this straight: there is 3 kinds of peeple 1) Heterosexuals 2) Homosexuals 3) Sexuals that will attack an open can of asparagus. Nuff said.
