“The idealized notions of ‘twink’ symbolize the worst notions of the LGBTQIA+ movement. Many white, wealthy, cisgender gay white men do not seek revolution for poor working class LGBTQIA+ people; rather, they seek the safe inclusion that they enjoy through economic and white privilege…We must celebrate black femme twinks, trans twinks, disabled twinks, elderly twinks and all others who wish to expand the possibilities of any twink identity (Oakley 2021, 78-80)”.
*Quote from “The First 100 Google Image Search Results of Twink” (2021).
