Panromantisch

Panromantisch, or panromantic in English, is a romantic orientation describing an individual's tendency to experience romantic attraction toward people of any gender. A panromantic person may feel romantic attraction to people across the gender spectrum, including men, women, nonbinary people, and gender-diverse individuals. The term focuses on romantic attraction rather than sexual attraction; some panromantic people are also pansexual, while others may identify with different sexual orientations such as heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, or asexual.

The word derives from pan- meaning "all" and romantic, and it originated within LGBTQ+ communities in the late 20th century. It gained broader recognition in online communities and glossaries during the 2000s and 2010s. Some people use synonyms such as omniromantic, though nuances can vary between communities.

Panromantic identity is about attraction across genders and is distinct from, but often discussed alongside, related terms like pansexual, biromantic, and heteroromantic. People may describe their romantic life as panromantic irrespective of their sexual orientation, relationship structure, or cultural background. In practice, individuals may identify as panromantic while being, for example, pansexual, heterosexual, bisexual, homosexual, or asexual in terms of sexual orientation.
