(While Jonathan Kasdan confirmed Lando being pan by saying the fluidity/sexuality of Donald and Billy Dee’s portrayals lends itself to pansexuality.) In 2018, Donald Glover said “how can you not be pan in space? There are so many things to have sex with”. In 2017, LezWatchTV’s pan page included characters who’ve “slept with aliens”. ‘Any hole is a goal’ was never something I’d subscribed to.” It was another way of saying I’m greedy and want to fuck anyone and anything. In 2017, Zane Michaleson perpetuated this in Our Dirty Little Secrets: “I hated the term pan with a passion. In 2014, folks on Tumblr spread the idea of a show called All or Nothing, with pan and ace main characters, with a “plot twist” flipping ace and pan stereotypes the ace character is outgoing and flirtatious, the pan character is socially awkward and can’t get a date.įrom 2014 and on, sexualization was considered “the” pan stereotype. In 2012, Margaret Cho said she doesn’t like labeling her sexuality and she’s just slutty, yet media outlets declared her as speaking “on pansexuality” and “letting her pansexual flag fly”. In 2011, the study Bisexual Invisibility states some people feel pan and omni “reinforce a stereotype of promiscuity” without challenging it. There are endless pan articles/posts that touch on/are about misconceptions that include “pan people are attracted to everyone” or “pan people are promiscuous” from 2012-2021. Pan people/characters have been stereotyped most often as flirtatious/promiscuous, as pan is commonly viewed as “having sex with everything and everyone”, and pan rep and the lived experiences of pan people speak to this.

This “stereotype” (that I think of as having two sides happy/bubbly/outgoing and shy/innocent/childish, sometimes combined) is quite new.
