Mary Gonzalez, First Openly Pansexual Legislator, Explains How She Is Changing Minds In Texas

....in Texas, Democrats have impressively managed to beat back the bulk of over 20 anti-gay bills conservative Republicans had created in committees in an effort to blunt a Supreme Court ruling this month...

.....Gonzalez first wanted to dispel some misinformation about her identity. She first came out as pansexual — which is distinct from bisexual because it defines an individual who is attracted to various gender identities — in 2012 after first being elected, noting that she’d dated transgender and "gender-queer" people. But it had been reported that she came out as lesbian first and then later came out as pansexual. But, she explained, "lesbian" was never an identity that she claimed for herself.

I loved that show.

[Gator113]

LOL...

"pansexuals are attracted to everyone, it doesn’t matter what their orientation or gender."

Another new subgroup marching under the banner of sexual disorientation.

Almost wet my pants. You are funny.

[Verbosus]

The biggest laugh I have had all week!
Thanks!
(I had never heard of a pansexual before - and I like your definition best).

It’s just an attempt at sounding fancy when a person is into doing people of both genders (bisexual)

[A Cyrenian]

Gonzalez, what a flipping retard!

[fwdude]

I didn’t read or open the Bluffpo article, either. So, is she a legislator from crazy Austin, I resume?

[fwdude]

And it’s not going to end well.

We're in the process of ending now. And you're right, it's not well.

[fwdude]

Here’s hoping that you’re a man. :)

[AF_Blue]

It involves Calphalon and T-Fal. You don’t want to know more than that.

[tacticalogic]

Pansexual = She’ll f**k anything that moves.

I think that pretty much covers it. Someone should ask her "Can you come over and do my dog? He seems really frustrated and keeps trying to hump my leg but I'm just not comfortable with that."

[Gator113]

LOL.... I am. LOL

[Gritty]

I can understand everybody wanting to get along together,... but does this mean we all have to have sex together?

Mary Gonzalez: born and raised in Texas. Over the past 13 years I’ve listened to numerous insults of my state, particularly from Texans, yet I’ve never said a bad thing about Texas or Texans. Not only that, but I’ve always admired Texas and Texans and have spoken well, even admiringly of them.

I hope that at some time in the not so distant future at least a few Texans will understand that there are liberals and conservatives in every state in our country.

Thank you very much.

My post was not directed to you personally, btw. I don’t even know where you live.

Besides that, I’ve always liked you.

[SoFloFreeper]

Thanks. :-)

Bisexuality was common in Greco-Roman culture. A guy could do it with a guy in the day and go home and do his wife at night, without a problem.

[Morpheus2009]

Uh, no, I am sticking to my wife, in fact, I have a preference for only her.
