Morphology
pansexuality = pansexual (transparent) = pan + sexual + ity
The noun is a straightforward formation from 'pansexual' with the nominalizing suffix '-ity', preserving the meaning.
Etymology
Pansexuality starts with the Greek part pan- meaning 'all' (as in panorama or pandemic) and adds sexuality, which means sexual or romantic attraction. So, pansexuality describes being attracted to people of 'all' genders, or being attracted regardless of gender.
