The word 'twink' can be found on most if not all gay dating apps, where users can search potential matches by body type as well as listing their own. Other types of twink sometimes used in gay culture include femme twink, which refers to a young, thin man whose mannerisms or gender expression don't exclusively fit into a conventionally masculine binary. A muscle twink, or twunk (twink+hunk) is somebody with that youthful, clean-shaven appearance, but a more visibly muscular physique think Tom Holland or Darren Barnet. If you look a certain way-skinny, smooth-skinned, young for your age-then there's a possibility that you might have been called a 'twink.' This term, coined and originally used exclusively by gay men, refers to a man in his late teens or early 20s, with a thin build, and no body hair or facial hair.
