How Do Celebrities Define Pansexuality?
Being pansexual doesn't mean having fun with your skillet. While the term “pansexual” and the identity that comes with it has been around for centuries, now, in the 21st century, it is a word that's used a lot. The definition of pansexual is "not limited in sexual choice with regard to biological sex, gender, or gender identity." Furthermore, instead of confining themselves into one sexual demographic (such as lesbian or gay or straight or bisexual), pansexual individuals are authenticating a lifestyle that lacks labels and boundaries. Pansexuality explores all gender types, not just those who identify as the traditional male or female. Celebrities, legislators, and the average Joe are exploring their sexuality more than ever. This sexual fluidity of our time is seemingly becoming a new way of life.

Best Antiheroes in Comics
When we’re talking about the best antiheroes in comics, we’re generally referring to the controversial bunch of “grey” folks standing strong halfway between the shiny-white heroes and abyssal-black villains. They’re the fabulous shady bastards that somehow manage to promote justice and put a smile on our faces while leaving behind them colossal wreckage with dozens of victims caught in it incidentally.
