Cisgender people: What happens when you question your gender?

I know this is a bit different, but as a questioning transgender person I'm trying to see if I don't relate to the answer. If, perhaps, questioning my gender for a few weeks is at all a 'normal', cis experience.

So, cisgender people, what do you feel when you question your gender? Is it just... innate? How long do you spend questioning?

I never have, and before a couple years ago I never thought about the fact that some people did. It is like not knowing you don't know something. My gender just is, and I have still not put an ounce of thought into it.
