Also, why do those who identify as such prefer these to queer? Queer suggests the same thing (attraction to, or affiliation with non-heteronormative identities/relationships/dynamics) and predates the use of these terms (so obviously people saw a need to come up with other terms).

I guess I'm just wondering how those who identify their sexuality as such perceive their sexuality, or how pansexuality differs from pomosexuality/polysexuality or queer identity.

Pansexual- Someone who can be attracted ALL genders

Pomosexual- Someone who does not label their sexual orientation

Polysexual- Someone who is attracted to some genders but not all
