Can black guys be twinks? If yes are black twinks common?

I feel like most black men naturally have more muscular bodies whether they are petite or large. I have seen tons of black guys who are twunks but never twinks. Actually I have seen one but his booty was so big it looked like a woman's booty. Most twinks have petite, perky and sometimes bubbly butts.

I feel like white and asian men are more prone to having a twink body type/aesthetic.

Seems like it would be discriminatory to deny someone to be a twink simply because of his race.

The term twink has as much to do with the color of twinkies as with youthful characteristics. As in, twink means a young cute/sweet vs masculine fair-haired white boy. Come up with some new terms to describe others.

"Twink" used to refer specifically to gay, white, cute, blond, young adult males with a slight physique and not too intelligent. Eventually the term expanded to include any attractive young male (late teens and college age) who still looks adolescent.

I'd say Marcus Scribner, from "Black-ish," is a good example of an African-American twink.

R4 You can call him many things, but he is MUCH too large to be a twink.

What about Keiynan Lonsdale from Love Simon? Cute and sexy and twinky, no?

The Darfur orphan is too skinny to be a twink.

I guess technically no because of the above description that has been true for as long as I've known the word. But many black men could be twinkish. Typically men who are biracial though or light skinned.

Jaden Smith is the only one who would qualify as a twink with Marcus Scribner being a twunk. I prefer twunks myself.

Notice, R27, that the product you reference is new. Some sources say the gay usage of the word twink dates from the 50s or 60s. So for the past 60 years, the term has referred to the golden twinkies, not the brown ones.

I was just leaving a store yesterday that is very gay-oriented and leaning on the front counter was a slim, not very tall, very cute young black man, very much a twink. So I vote yes.

I always assumed twink applied to any young guy and have always used it as such.

On Rick & Steve The Happiest Gay Couple In The World Evan was called a twink and he's not white.

Would you call a husky boi a twink if he was 20?
