Twink (gay slang)
''Twink'' is a gay slang term used to describe young men in their late teens to early twenties. Usage of the term varies, but traits attributed to twinks can include attractiveness, having little or no body or facial hair, a slim to average build, or appearing to be younger than their physical age. The term dates back to at least 1963, but may be derived from the older British term ''twank''.
==Origin==
The term ''twink'' has been recorded in use since 1963, and may be derived from an older British gay slang term ''twank'',〔 meaning "The quarry of a homosexual prostitute (male); a man willing and ready to become any dominant man's 'partner'."〔
The Oxford Dictionary says the word ''twink'' means "a homosexual or effeminate, or a young man regarded as an object of homosexual desire," and that the word has origins in the 1970s. The term is derived from the snack cake Twinkie, commonly regarded as the quintessential junk food: "little nutritional value, sweet to the taste and creme-filled."〔 ''Cream'' is among the well-known food-related euphemistic terms for semen. In ''Queering Pornography: Desiring Youth, Race and Fantasy in Gay Porn'', essayist Zeb J. Tortorici notes that gay twink porn thrives on the production and performance of "consumable and visually/anally receptive masculinity."
A twink is "memorable for his outer packaging", not his "inner depth". The definition of ''twink'' has broadened, and qualifiers (such as ''muscle'' or ''femme'') narrow the meaning to a more specific type of twink.〔Scott Jacobson, Todd Levin, Jason Roede, Sex: Our Bodies, Our Junk, pages 204-205, Random House, Inc., 2010, ISBN 0-307-59216-2, ISBN 978-0-307-59216-3.〕
