American Singer Janelle Monae Comes Out As Pansexual

American singer, Janelle Monae, who is known for being private about her personal life, is being more open.

The singer in a new interview with Rolling Stone magazine opened up about her sexuality for the first time “Being a queer black woman in America, someone who has been in relationships with both men and women – I consider myself to be a free-ass motherfucker,” she told the magazine.

The 32-year-old singer and actress clarified that she initially identified as bisexual, “but then later I read about pansexuality and was like, ‘Oh, these are things that I identify with too.’ I’m open to learning more about who I am.”

To be pansexual means that one is not limited in sexual choice with regard to biological sex, gender, or gender identity. This means a pansexual person can have sex with a man, woman, transgender… as long as the person is a human being.
