It is my firm conviction that in the personality of the percipient we shall find what will prove most valuable for the understanding of paranormal manifestations. Example: Discover these radiations for yourself. Start slowly, say for not more than a 15 minute period. Experienced radiationists work for hours on certain studies but they all started gradually.

Word: pansexualism Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Attested since 1917 (a few years earlier than pansexual, which see for more). 1. The psychological theory that all human activity (mental and physical) is based on sexuality. Labels: historical, uncountable Example: And so we are back at pansexualism. It cannot, however, be too often insisted that, though Freud heavily emphasized the element of sexuality in human nature, he utterly rejected pansexualism, which he regarded as a travesty of his theory; and on many occasions he explicitly and energetically denied the equation of all instinctual life with sexuality. Example: [W]e are positing that theoretical pansexualism is but the reflection of a real pansexualism, that is, of a movement by which sexuality reinvests the entirety of human activities. Sexuality is not everything, but it is everywhere. 2. Pansexuality. Labels: derogatory, rare, uncountable Example: 9.10 Polysexuality and Pansexualism. The prefixes pan and poly originate from ancient Greek meaning all and many, respectively. A person identified as pansexual is gender blind. That is, such people can engage in sexual acts with people having any gender [...]. Polysexuality is thus a subset of pansexuality.

Labels: not-comparable Example: Wilhelm Fliess's critic Henning commented about both Fliess and Freud in this light when he complained of their joint efforts to displace the Darwinian "principle of selection" in favor of a rampant pansexualist philosophy (1910:232).
Word: pansexualist Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From pansexualism or pansexual + -ist. 1. A proponent of the psychological theory of pansexualism. Example: Even Wilhelm Reich, who could be described as a more radical pansexualist than Freud himself, could not help speculating on the following lines... Example: Yet Freud, one must insist, was not a pansexualist. He rejected the epithet with considerable acerbity, not because he was secretly a one-sided adulator of libido, but because, quite simply; he thought that his denigrators were wrong. 2. A person who is attracted, or who is able to experience attraction, to everyone and everything. Labels: derogatory, rare, sometimes Example: Whitman is a pansexualist. He makes love with, among others, the sun, the night, the earth, the sea, and the winds (W 30, 49, 53). His synecdochic perception results in his genitalized identification with his environment, including the people around him. The spermatic trope works well to explain the nature of Whitman's decentered phallus. If "sex contains all," sperm describes all (W 101). It also works well to describe the nature of his pansexualist eros. Example: If sexual orgasm is the royal way to knowledge of God, perhaps such orgasm doesn't have to occur only with a woman. Maybe, as the gays and pansexualists claim, any kind of orgasm will qualify.
