In queer studies, questioning is a sexual orientation (and less commonly gender identity), or a phase or period where an individual re-assesses (however privately or openly) the orientation/identity that they have either asserted for themselves, or been brought up as. This most commonly happens when a person socialised as heterosexual and cisgendered internally challenges one or both of those presumptions, often leading to them coming out as LGB/Queer and/or Transgendered. Further "questionings" can occur later in life when the person reconsiders their previous conclusion about to their sexual orientation and/or gender identity.
