'''Questian''', also called '''A?''', means one does not know their sexuality/romantic [[orientation]] due to their place in the [[Asexual Spectrum|ace]]/[[Aromantic Spectrum|aro]] spectrum.
They may have narrowed down what their [[attraction]] is, but not fully.
One may be questian because they:
*haven’t met enough of that/those gender(s) to know if they like that/those gender(s).
*don’t know if they do or don’t understand romantic/sexual attraction.
*are [[demiromantic]] and/or [[demisexual]] and never having a long enough connection with someone of that/those gender(s) to know if you’re attracted to that/those gender(s).
This is exclusive to those who are ace-spec and/or aro-spec. One does not have to know their exact identity, as long as they know they are a-spec and believe it is affecting their ability to figure out their attraction. One might also be [[questioning]] and/or [[Quoisexual|quoi]]- in addition to being questian.

These subsets make it easier to tell how the individual feels about their connection to their true romantic/sexual attraction and their being questian. They can identify as a sub-label, but they don't have to.
