There’s very little actual difference.

* Bisexuals are more “I am attracted to both people of my gender identity, and people not of my gender identity.”
* Pansexual are more “I am attracted to people no matter what their gender identity may be.”

In practice, these are pretty much the same. But the name matters to some people. Some people feel that bisexual isn’t as inclusive a term. Others feel that bisexual is more commonly accepted and traditional. But overall, the two terms are pretty much identical.
