Neceo Creas Neceo CH0Z0 Creas If you don't mind my asking, what the hell is the difference between that and bisexual? Dictionary bisexual |bīˈsek sh oōəl| adjective sexually attracted to both men and women. pansexual |panˈsek sh oōəl| adjective not limited or inhibited in sexual choice with regard to gender or activity. No idea. I'll write up some facts in a second, let me think of some. Works like this. You have your singular sexualities, Straight, Gay, lesbian, necrophilia, Beastual, Asexual, and *insert name for people attracted to inatinate objects here* then you have bisexuals. Just straight up male and female. then theres Trisexuals. people who are interested in males, females, and transgenders. then theres the random sexuality I forgot the name of which means you will have sex with literally everything its possible to have sex with. (anything from dead bodies, to frying pans, to your pet cat) then theres pansexual. Ill take a few quotes from the wikipedia for this. *insert page stretch here.* Simplified = Im attracted to people because of their personality regardless of gender, And Im the sort of pansexual who dosent value sex that much at all outside of affection. Altogether quite different from your typical bisexual...... I swear they are all bloody horny as hell or just really desperate. (no offence to natural bisexuals, But being bi is just becoming a fashion statement or a way to get more sex) I still don't see it. Both sexualities can be attracted to all genders. (Also I have a bisexual friend who doesn't care that much about sex at all. And our school hates every one that isn't explicitly straight.) bisexual is limited to male/female. It ignores the other genders. As in plural. Also theres lot of people who are pansexual who think they are bisexual since they dont know what pansexual is. razz I need to stop being so stubborn and accept that other people say that trans gender is a third gender. Even so what's the fourth one?

peoplers A don't understand the educational system anywhere other than Scotland. and in America are College and University the same thing? Quote: The precise usage of the term varies among the English-speaking countries. In the United States and Ireland, for example, the terms "college" and "university" may be regarded as loosely interchangeable, whereas in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and other Commonwealth countries, a "college" is usually an institution between school and university level (although constituent schools within universities are also known as "colleges"). I never understood it either... but then I looked it up on Wiki *waits for groans to stop* and got that ^ EDIT: Thought I'd better throw a random fact in... seeing as it's the random fact thread and all, ok so... ummmm, Oh! I'm a total sugar junkie, got to love the sweets!

peoplers A don't understand the educational system anywhere other than Scotland. and in America are College and University the same thing? UK/England is easy. SATS>GCSEs> A Levels>Degree *I'm currently on A Levels ^^,* I'll try to explain: SATS - year 6-9 - age 10-13 Exams are pretty easy, just the general Maths, English and Science. When I did it - it was things like fractions, spelling, writing out words like 1089 ((one thousand and eighty nine)) xD GCSEs - year 10-11 - age 14-16 Depending on what you got in SATS - it's all determined which exam paper you sit for GCSE. Higher - chance of getting A*-U Foundation - chance of getting C-U They sort out classes depending on what paper and ability you're at. I was in all higher classes. Those in higher learn more advanced stuff than foundation - therefore we all have the opportunity to work to our best ability. So, in foundation maths, you'd learn about the simple statistics stuff, in higher, you learn more in depth and what is what etc. D:< The exam paper types in foundation are much more simplistic than higher. Higher asks for more working out and more thinking. For example, for my Psychology exam, I sat higher and it asked for more in depth answers, in foundation, they would ask you a simple question and you answer it. A Levels - year 12-13 ((I've nearly completed mine now.)) - age 17-19 {{depends if you did crap in GCSE's and have to resit all the main stuff, if you did well, then you finish at 18 years of age ;D}} You need to do REALLY well in A Levels to even be considered into a University. The course I want to do requires B or higher in Maths in GCSEs and a requirement of points you get in A Levels. Basically, to be able to go to Uni, you need A Levels. Degree - university - any age. From GCSE-Degree, they are all important when getting jobs. CV's/resumés ask for GCSE grades, and any other qualification.

Yes. In America, college and university are the same thing. Colleges just tend to be smaller than universities, but you can get the same degrees and such.
I'd write more, but my arm really hurts. I just got the H1N1 shot, and it HURTS!!!!!!!

Because I don't understand why that guy was so shocked confused He said that's too young to finish everything at... 2 years: Associates degree 4 years: bachelors degree (this is what I'll get) Doctorates and masters come after that, but those classes can last from 4 more years to 6 or 10. depends what you're going into and how determined you are. A bachelors is good for most things.
