Bisexual is the umbrella term, which pansexual is under. Bisexual just means "attracted to your own gender and other gender(s)" and pansexual makes that more specific
Bi: I like my gender and other gender(s), and I may or may not have preferences/exclusions (the "my gender/other gender(s)" language is important because bi doesn't inherently exclude enbys, etc)

Yup. That's dumb as hell.
Just as "LGBT is straight erasure!"
Just as "Bisexuals is Gay/Lesbian erasure!"
Just as "Trans is drag erasure!"

I think of it more like Bi+ or Bi Premium because you get more content than traditional Bi.

What can I say, the free tier meets my needs.
I don't need to upload my partners to the cloud... yet.

Bisexual: I like men and women.
Pansexual: IDGAF about gender, let's fuck.

Not exactly
Bi: I like my gender and other gender(s), and I may or may not have preferences/exclusions (the "my gender/other gender(s)" language is important because bi doesn't inherently exclude enbys, etc)
Pan: IDGAF about gender
Omni: I have preferences/exclusions

I identify as bi. I'm always into myself and my current partner, and that's two right there. Good enough!
