Cute, young, smooth, boyish... are the absolute requirements. Regardless of true age, they should LOOK 18-23.

 

Others read into the meaning such things as thin, blond, ditzy, etc.

 

Though not everyone agrees, in my opinion, it is the face and the demeanor that most define a twink. A cute, young looking face does it for me all the time. So even if you have muscles, definition, and size like Travis of Boulder... that adorable mug and impish smile make you a twink!

This question comes up once in a while.

 

Somewhere I saw the origin of the term linked to the Hostess snack cake named Twinkie.

 

They're smooth, supple, sweet, and have a creamy filling to be sucked out. :9

 

It's often linked to age, but not always. I've known guys into their 30's who fit the mold just because they still look very young & cute.

 

As Marc Anthony says, other attributes are often (rightly or wrongly) applied: ditzy, flighty, even "dumb blond"-type behavior. But it's not always there.

 

Bottom line: twinks are "young and cute". Everyone has their own perspective on the required parameters.

That is one of those qualifiers that some people attribute to word... but absolutely not me. Most of the guys I listed on my "twink" list on another thread are not feminine at all.

 

Brogan is on the cusp... something called a "mink"... mixture of man and twink, mainly because his face would be best described as handsome rather than "cute."

 

But I agree... he is a winner!

Answer, in a word, is yes. But since this is an escort hiring board, we are not talking about anyone who is 13. If alternative wording makes you feel better, I will say that they should look under 23, but be legal. On an escort message board, I am assuming the question asked was what defines a twink who is hirable. And yes, if someone is older and can pass for 21, they can still be a twink and they market themselves as such. I know some twink escorts and strippers who are pushing the big 3-0, and believe me, all I can do is marvel at how great they look!

How about if they ARE clearly of legal age - let's say they are 20 - but they LOOK like they're 15? I have a couple questions about such an escort:

 

(A) Would they qualify as a "twink"? and,

 

(B) Assuming he had a cute face and a young smooth tight body, would you find such an escort to be appealing?

I usually pump it out, so much more fun and less fattening.

I totally agree on the young and cute definition. I also think some push the "dumb" behavior when they are actually very smart. However, simply put, age even for the most astute and able among them (and I count mine among that crowd) still limits what they can know, just like there are some clients I meet who are old enough to be my father or grandfather, who have a wealth of simple information and knowledge I cannot hope to have at my age.

OK... sorry, but I just don't think this is that profound an issue that it is worth such great analysis.

 

I just wanted to help out Argos and let him know what I think a twink is. I like them, and I hire them. If they are legal, look young, are cute and sexy, and exude the energy of youth... they appeal to me.

 

I think we all best spend our time finding them and hiring them rather than defining them.

 

And if you are not sure what I am talking about, as everyone else on this board knows... look up Travis in Boulder. My definition of a perfect twink. Not 13. Not 15. Not 30. Not fem. Not ditzy. Not blond. Just sexy as hell, cuter than shit, and who I would like to be with right now.

Definitely does not imply "feminine". I, like Marc Anthony, am a twink lover but do not hire if I know they are feminine in advance. This is not to say that twinks cannot be feminine, just that it is not a prerequisite for twinkdom. Love those twinkies! :9

Please, believe me when I say that I have nothing but the deepest respect for you and what you find/define as an attractive twink.

 

But, imo, it seems that the majority of clients view a twink as a slim, smooth young man, between 18 and 22 most of whom are bottoms and just like Doug69 implied, the more boyish and younger they look the more they are the proverbial twink.

 

How else do you justify the complaints of twink loving clients that the escort was 21 not 18, as has often been bitched about on this board?

 

Also, I believe you will find that the majority of clients do indeed feel that such young men are ditzy and brainless blondes.

 

Is this true, of course not! But let's not refute the shallow, stereotyped definition of a "twink", even though those of intelligence know otherwise. :)
