synonymous with stance, position, etc.
that person's stance is that they don't feel sexual attraction to anyone else
furthermore, pansexuality is not a variant of bisexuality
pansexuality is defined as not being limited in sexual choice with regard to biological sex, gender, or gender identity
bisexuality is defined as sexual attraction to, both, men and women
one who identifies as bisexual is not likely to be attracted to someone who identifies as female but has male genitalia and vice versa, ergo pansexuality as a label
they are two separate o r i e n t a t i o n s
that is why there are two separate words to describe them

Thank you. I don't see how hard this concept is.
Someone who is pansexual can be attracted to genderqueer, masculine, feminine, cisgender, transgender, non-binary, and non-gender conforming identified individuals. It transcends sexual orientation AND gender identity.
Bisexual would be attraction to cisgender male and female.
