Please remove “Heterosexual” from the list of sexual orientations, because heterosexualism is a disease, not an orientation. Thanks. ] (]) 20:19, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

Pansexuality

I feel as if Pansexuality should be listed as a sexual orientation rather than under related terms -- many pansexuals view their identity as its' own distinct orientation and numerous LGBT groups list it as such. NekomancerJaidyn (talk) 22:24, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

It's about the difference between sexual identity and sexual orientation. Non-academic sources sometimes conflate the terms, as people may in common speech, but they are not the same. As the pansexuality article makes clear, many sources consider it to be under the bisexual umbrella. Crossroads 00:32, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
