thanks for asking! queer is an umbrella term among lgbtq people, and some people use the term queer because they aren't comfortable with any other labels. i, for instance, use the term queer, because i'm not comfortable with any other labels. in short, queer is an umbrella term for people who like the same gender. they can like more than one gender, as i do. i'm not extremely educated on the subject, so if anyone else has another answer, or if i got any info wrong, please tell me. anyways, have a nice day! :)
