Explaining Pansexuality to people who haven't thought about it before


I just pulled together the greatest metaphor. Okay, so:


09th [04:43:29] CS: Whoa
09th [04:43:31] CS: I just found
09th [04:43:37] CS: the best pansexual metaphor
09th [04:43:40] CS: on this site
09th [04:43:44] CS: Okay okay, chaos
09th [04:43:47] CS: c'mere
09th [04:44:00] CS: alright? Now think about the pokemon games
09th [04:44:15] CS: chaos, gimme your attention, this is a thought experiment
09th [04:44:39] Chaos: i am
09th [04:44:48] CS: Okay. Pokemon games.
09th [04:44:50] CS: You with me?
09th [04:44:56] Chaos: yeah
09th [04:45:03] CS: Male and female pokemon
09th [04:45:49] CS: a male pokemon that you can drop off at the daycare with a female pokemon of the same species, and they'll <3, is a heterosexual male pokemon.
09th [04:46:37] CS: a female, say, Charmeleon that you can drop off at the daycare with a male Charmeleon or female Charmeleon, that's a bisexual female Charmeleon.
09th [04:46:48] CS: Ditto is pansexual.
09th [04:47:24] CS: http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnsbqaejwi1qak0qdo1_500.png
09th [04:47:29] Chaos: because it can breed with anything that breathes?
09th [04:47:40] CS: yes. even if it's not the same species of pokemon
09th [04:47:57] CS: it doesn't just have to be the same or opposite, it'll <3 any pokemon.
09th [04:48:01] CS: That's what pansexuality's like

 

[Note/context]: The metaphor hinges on the parallel between ditto <3ing each species even ones it's not, as opposed to the charmeleon <3ing just males or females of the same species, with pansexual people <3ing people that aren't just strictly identified male or female.

[Edit]: My friend added as I tried to continue making a breakthrough to my friend,"tell them i identify as a brick and you'd love me for me before you loved me for being a brick"

Ahhhh =) My first pokemon game was firered, but I have soulsilver =D
......also, you can put all pokemon in the daycare with whatever gender, it's just that they 'prefer to play with others rather than eachother' if they're the same gender...at least it's that way in my games...also, the brick thing was kinda awesome xD

Psh the pokemon are clearly just hiding their harbored gay lust for eachother when the daycare people are in sight, duh.

I had blue! And got Fire Red when it came out...I've never had a different generation's story lol.

Didn't you get this strane I-don't know-what-to-call-it thingy with Gold? A pokewalked is sorta a new versionof it...counts your steps too, and gives pokemon in it exp based on how much you walked...

...you can just shake the pokewalker too, so that would work for the lazy kids x)

It is not a pokedex though, it is just a help for getting pokemon up in level and making them happy, plus you find items and can get even more pokemon that you catch using the pokewalker and transfer to the DS, pokemon that can't be caught in the game.

oh
so it is a bad scheme to get kids to move =P... how do you catch pokemon with that thing ? is it like a gameboy ?
i always hated that about the pokemon games, you cant catch all pokemon in one game... gotta have 2 versions(or a friend with the other one) to catch all=S
greedy ppl

I know they are all greedy, but I think you can catch the same pokemon with the pokewalker no matter if it came with a soulsilver or heartgold game.

Gapps, of course you do. We all know the creators of Pokemon are greedy little bastards, but they HAVE come up with something really good =)

 

...and Doc, I will check that video at school tomorrow because our internet connection her sucks...Ash was always an annoying little noob though, and we all know that Pikachu was the awesome one :D
