The title makes me cringe a bit, cause Twinks have been in style for a long time and are probably the only subset of gay body type tropes that the mainstream even knows (other than Bears, which are polar)

But slay. I'm always here for feminine bodies and the perception of masculinity to be challenged :sis: 

私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから

I feel this is sort of a shallow attempt at saying new masculinity in culture is changing, which it is, but it has little to do with twinks...any man can fight a norm that centers around lazy machismo, you have only the need to be yourself to do so.

Being a twink, what they are really trying to say beautiful androgyny, or men who have characteristics of women, but that's not exclusively a twink. Think of all the different types of men who are unquestionably so as drag queens, some of them very masculine out of drag, or how much makeup for men is being accepted these days.

You don't have to be a twink to have depth of gender folks...

It was the age of the twink when I was a twink. And I loathe that word. I was that street twink guy with the sag and the skateboard. Im still the same just an older version.  I dont know if I want to know what THATS called. Lmao 

I just never got any taller and never became any other label. Thats why Im just That J. :trollga:

Im learning there seems to be different definitions of twink tho. Maybe it depends on what era you're from. In the 90s it was just the short skinny guy that never grew hair on his chest.

I never thought that was what a twink was.  To us, a twink was the little skinny guy who you'd ask to see the license of when he lit up a cigarette. Lol.

I’m waiting for an article that discusses “Bears” and pictures nothing but hairless average guys with a beard and tries to describe them as “cubs”
