A girl who appears to be a lesbian or exhibits traits and behaviors typically associated with lesbian identity but is uncertain or unsure about her sexual orientation. She may openly express attraction to women or non-binary people, yet hasn’t fully defined or committed to a specific label for her sexuality. Often in a state of exploration or self-discovery, a Questbian is someone navigating the complexities of their identity, and while others might assume she's a lesbian, she may still be figuring things out. It’s a term that reflects a fluid, questioning, or ambiguous phase of sexual identity where the person might be unsure or open to different possibilities, but hasn’t settled on a definitive label. Word derives from Question + Lesbian.
"She’s been hanging out with mostly girls lately, but she still says she’s not sure about her sexuality. I think she’s kind of a Questbian."
