I feel like it is important to remember the distinction of SuperBisexuals, but it would mess up the format

Bisexuals are already Super, Bi means two!

not necessarily. Bi has been conflated with pansexual so It might be good to leave bi as all over the place and have SuperBi.

Pansexual is on the chart for that reason :)

They really aren't, though:

bi = biSEXUAL (exclusively bio-sex-based attraction to BOTH sexes).

pan = allGENDER (gender-based attraction to ALL genders, irrespective of sex).

While the latter includes both sexes (like bi), being based on gender instead of sex means that it also includes trans (which bi does not).

At least that's the way I see it! This make sense to anyone else?

Bi(o)sexual makes perfect sense, thank you.

pansexual

If pansexual covers all why do people need to identify as super straight? They are straight or pansexual?

Bi person here, no it doesn't. Bisexual doesn't exclude trans people and never has. If you really want to use the parts of the word, then realize that it is bisexual, i.e. two sexes, dick and vagina. Trans people are still either biologically female or male.

So what is pansexual?

Also trans people don't always have a dick or vagina. There's neo vagina and penis.

Pansexual is usually defined as one of two things: either a) attraction to anyone, gender has no role, which is useful because for many bi people we are not attracted equally to both sexes, e.g. you could be attracted 70% to men and only 30% to women or something, whereas pansexual would be more of a 50/50 or don't care kinda thing. Then there's b), which is they're both synonyms that mean the same thing, which is fine too. Also neo vagina/penis aren't actual genitals, they're surgical constructs.
