TwinkCode Version 1.00
Kirk Johanning
This is the long awaited TwinkCode (tm) Version 1.00.
Since hair color seems to be a determining factor in whether someone
is a twink, I will start with that. Using a capital "T" to denote
"Twink" I have come up with the following hair color scale:
9 - BLONDE (must be natural). All hair on body is blonde.
8 - mostly blonde. Most of the hair on body is blonde.
7 - strawberry blonde
6 - bright red
5 - dark red
4 - auburn
3 - light brown
2 - brown
1 - dark brown
0 - black (raven)
If hair is colored the original color should be included in
parentheses, such as: T8(3)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
h - the 'hairlessness' factor (opposite of NBCS "f") refers to
body hair.
h++ SMOOTH body - virtually no hair
h+ little hair
h some hair
(none) average body hair
h- above average body hair
h-- veritable furball (could be considered a bear)
There are four more subclasses:
c - refers to chest
b - refers to butt
l - refers to legs
s - refers to shin (part of leg below the knee)
They are to be used as follows:
if you have a smooth chest, yet hair starting at the
butt and below the code might be "hc++b-",
if you have a smooth chest and butt with moderately
hairy legs it might be "h++l", etc.
If 'hairlessness' is a result of shaving or depilatories
you should first list the current state and then list the
original in parenthesis. For example, if I were to shave
all my hair off it would be "h++(++s)" as I have little body
hair to begin with. Another example might be if I would
normally be shaved smooth but am currently letting what
body hair I have grow then it would be h++s(++).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
b - the brain factor
b++ The ultimate, brainless twink
b+ below average
(none) average mental activity; may use dictionary
b has brains and may use them occasionally
b- above average and uses his often
b-- genius (it's amazing but some are actually smart)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
a - attitude
a++ attitude from hell; has enough for 20
a+ above average
a has attitude and knows how to use it
(none) attitude at times
a- mostly unpretentious
a-- no attitude, what you see is what you get.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
w - the WHINE factor
w++ Will scream "I'm BOOOORRRRRRED" while you're
still home and just getting dressed
w+ Will state "I'm boooorrrrrred" immediately upon
arrival at destination
w Will whine, even when not needed
(none) Lets his displeasure be known when appropriate
w- Usually silent, but a peep may be heard every
now and then
w-- Strong, silent type
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
c - color of crust (tan)
c++ dark brown
c+ a nice golden brown
c the twink has a tan
(none) doesn't get out much
c- fair skin
c-- looks like a ghost
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
y - youthful appearance
y++ looks like he might have reached puberty
y+ still gets carded most every time he buys liquor
y looks college aged
(none) looks like he has been out of college for a while
y- looks like somebody's dad
y-- looks like somebody's grandfather
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
e - endowment (for the size queens amongst us)
e++ 8"+
e+ 6.5" - 8"
e 5.5" - 6.5"
(none) neutral
e- do you really want to let people know?
e-- you may not have much but you have guts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
g - gonads (balls)
g++ huge and bursting with cream
g+ large and cream filled
g above average
(none) has two
g- do you really want to let people know?
g-- you may not have much but you have guts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
f - flavor of cream
f++ very sweet, almost sickly, could be interchanged
with filling of actual Hostess Twinky (tm)
f+ sweet
f pleasant
(none) unremarkable
f- slightly bitter
f-- grapefruits taste better
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
t - twink hawk
t++ searches out twinkies when ever possible. Looks
for the most hairless, blonde, tan twink.
t+ really likes twinkies
t would like to meet a twinkie
(none) not a twink hawk
t- doesn't care for twinkies
t-- is offended by them (why are you even here?)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
k - "the KINKY factor"... for those who dare.
k++ likes just about EVERYTHING... we mean *EVERYTHING*!!!
k+ picks and choose according to likes; willing to
consider new ideas
k open minded. Might choose SOME things on the "menu"
(none) kinky neutral
k- has definite ABSOLUTE dislikes
k-- totally vanilla
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
s - "SEX (ok, SLUT) factor
s++ strictly polygamous, prefers very open relationships
ONLY.
s+ will form relationships which are generally open-ended
s neutral wrt to relationships/monogamy.
(none) relationship neutral
s- relationship oriented. Prefers a formal sort of
relationship over playing around, however the
scope of the word relationship is not defined here.
s-- strictly monogamously/relationship oriented. No
outside affairs, or in some cases, sex ONLY in
relationships
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
m - "the MUSCLE factor"... for those who like meat on them bones.
m++ Arnold Schwartzeneger is that you?
m+ definitely works out
m some definition
(none) muscle neutral
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
q - "the Q factor" (defined)
q++ more effeminate than Donna Reed, Florence
Henderson, and RuPaul combined
q+ swishes so much they sway
q is a queen
q- "straight-acting"
q-- probably should BE straight
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADDITIONAL PUNCTUATION
The following aren't graded, they are just flags attached to the
overall classification:
v for variable, said trait is not very rigid, may
change with time or with individual interaction
? for traits where there is no HARD information
available and the value is completely guessed
: for traits which are observed but uncertain,
eg. a twink who is wearing a lot of clothes, so
you can't be SURE he's an h+, but his forearms
REALLY suggest that he is, hence h+:
! for cases where the trait is as close to a
prototype as possible, or an exemplary case of
a specific trait... eg. the ultimate h++!
() for indicating "cross-overs" or ranges. A twink
who goes from k to k++ depending on the situation
(ie mostly "k") could use k(++)
You can make the punctuation as detailed as desired, although
the best ones to read are the ones which are the most clear and
simple to understand.
Some of this was taken/copied from the NBCS Version 1.09 without
permission (don't know if any is really needed).

Please, we're trying to design this by committee, don't go taking over
without asking permission. But since there are some good ideas, here's my
comments.

I like the idea of a hair-color code. It's an important twink feature.

I like the hairlesness code, but I'm not sure that I agree with your
sequence of ++ to --. While lack of hair is nice in many twinks, there are
exceptions. I think NCBS has it right when they use + to mean more and - to
mean less (and if they choose to read better or worse into that, it's their
fault).

Again, I'd reverse the ++/-- order, and use to designate amount of
intelligence. That or change it to an "airhead" code where ++ is more
airheaded than --.

I like this one. ++/-- works the way I like it to. Perhaps if we can find
another description so we can use 'a' for airhead.

Again, I like the format (and met a w++ this weekend at a SF con, who was
sitting in the hot tub complaining about how lonely he was).

I like the format. I'm not so sure about the 'y++' (and here's me bitching
about good/bad implications above, but I'm just not interested in barely
post-pubescent looking boys). And there isn't any real difference between
'y+' and 'y' because 3/4ths of college age students (if they're making it
thru in 4 years) are under the legal drinking age. Perhaps:
y++ looks like teen spirit
y+ still gets carded most every time he buys liquor
y looks twentysomething

Better designed than bearcode. More specific. But it means I have to get
out the ruler, and we have to define how we're measuring.

???? I suppose that someone might care a whole hell a lot about this, but I
don't really.

Some of us like grapefruit. Try Campari and you'll get an appreciation of
bitter. Plus, eating pineapple can improve one's flavor of skin, so I can't
see why it wouldn't improve jiz.

Change the t++ (more on this later...)

*X* and I had been discussing this (or maybe it was somebody else) but we
had concluded that muscle definition is more of a factor than muscle mass in
a twink. How about
m1 - Muscle definition
m1++ chiseled from marble
m1+ chiseled from oak
m1 chiseled from baswood (but still chiseled)
(none) neutral
m1- chiseled from marshmallow
Muscle mass is also somewhat important, tho...
m2 - Muscle mass
m2++ serious meat on that frame
m2+ more muscular than the average joe
m2 muscles are small, but there
(none) neutral
m2- there *might* be some muscle there...
m2-- wishful thinking will only get you so far

Minor surgery here, too...
q - How Queer? for the flaming queens out there...
q++ RuPaul should be taking notes.
q+ flaming, often sets off fire alarms
q somewhat swish
(none) blatantly subtle, a queen if you know
what to look for
q- invisible
q-- practically a deacon

It's a good attempt, but still needs improvement. Additions...
I'd change the T code to something like "HC" because there's another
description where T is useful.
T - Type of Twink
1 - VBall Twink - Often sun-bleached blond, usually
well defined, the VBall Twink reminds one of
Karch Kiraly or Brent Stoklos
2 - SurfTwink - again sun-bleached blond, again usually
well defined, yet the SurfTwink is a different
animal. Often sporting longer hair, and clothing
more suited to getting wet, the SurfTwink can be
a prized catch
3 - NuevoWest Twink - He looks western. But he looks
International Male western. Too colorful. Too
sharp. Not nearly weathered enough.
4 - StreetTwink - Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch don't
hold a candle to this Twink. The ultimate in urban
fashion is the characteristic here.
5 - Midwestern Twink - Suffice it to say, he looks like
the boy next door, only much, much better.
6 - GymTwink - A GymTwink can attempt any of the other
styles, but his body is what always grabs attention,
no matter how stylish he is.
I'm sure there's more, I just can't think of them, and I have to go to
anthropology.
Tear, shred, work this thing to death. I wan't to see a comprehensive twink
Code.

Now, now. It was a good effort. And he said "Version 1.00." And
we're twinks. We are not only entitled to change our minds, such as
they are, we are obligated too. I think Kirk did an *X*cellent job.
A round of applause, please...
<snap> <snap> <snap>
Now, you bring up several *X*cellent points:

May as well keep the original. I realize that not all twinks are; but
twinks
should not care about the opinions of others with respect to intellect.
There are better things to do with a twink than discuss chromo-electro-
dynamics. Even with twinks who _can_.

Good, yes.

Yes, very minor. I like Kirk's use of "straight-acting." It is a
blatant fixture in many twink personals.

Yes, this gets back to my Twinkal Forms. But you have some
repetition, and an omission. The VBall Twink and SurfTwink are
too close to merit separate classification. I would call them
BeachTwinks. Missing is the EuroTwink - the artsy, all-in-black,
pouty twink in Armani silks. So...
1 - Beach Twink
2 - NuevoWest Twink
3 - Street Twink (Grunge Twink?)
4 - All-American Twink
5 - GymTwink
6 - EuroTwink
Further, this number may be used again for the Twink Hawk characteristic
(t) as an indication of prefered twinkal prey.

Well, if I had seen ANYTHING by the committee then I would have abided
by its decision, but since the collective airhead did not get its act
together in time I decided to do something about it to get the ball
rolling. Now, on to the comments:

I remember reading the posts regarding the H.I.M. catalog and how it
was that the models all shaved. Somehow I got the idea that this was
an important trait in twinks and as such should be properly codified.
I guess the sequence is up to interpretation and if I hear lots of
opposition then I will post it in reverse order.

I don't get the pineapple = grapefruit reference. I agree that

If memory serves me (certainly substantial doubt there), Scott's
definitions come closer to what is considered the national norms.
If we suppose that the national average is around 6.6, then the
progressive scale proposed by Scott is more in keeping. Kirk's
scale would indicate an 'e' as 'average', and at that, slightly
less than average.
I certainly wouldn't mind being known as an 'e++' but I will
settle for an e+ ranking. =)

I don't think you get the point. I *like* bitter.
pinapple = grapefruit? that wasn't the point I was trying to make either.
It's a documented fact that eating pinapple will sweeten the taste of one's
skin. I was trying to make the point that this is something that can change
from day to day, depending on your diet.

I was thinking about preppy twink as an option this morning.
I don't know if appalachian twink qualifies. It's awfully difficult to
achieve twinkdom when dressing like Jethro Bodine. Appalachian is
anti-fashion.
euro-twink has been added.

This was my thinking too, but Kirk's scale
is more true to the realities of "average",
no?
Perhaps it should be based on displacement
volume - there are people with big fat beer
cans that are not especially long, and people
with 9" pencils. To me, there's a *big*
difference that this scale just doesn't
address.

My experience fits this pretty well... most (probably 85-90%) of guys fall
in the supposedly-average 5-7" range, with a pretty fair spread across
that range (I'm speaking as a retired s++, so I should know...) I know I've
only encountered a very small number of fellows under 5", and almost all
of them were quite sexually proficient... much more so than the "I'm hung
so worship me" type of guys...
I'm inclined to also give a discretionary + for unusual thickness, so that
could make someone that's 'normal' an e, and can make an e++ into an e+++!
(yes, such people exist. I have mixed feelings about fooling with them).
Ultimately, though, the codes are self-assigned, so if someone wishes to
say that a solid 6" is 'e', I'm not going to argue with them...

It's not just a height-flag we need in the Code - after all a tall blob is
not a twink. It's a general willowyness-flag; a combination of height and
slenderness and flexibility and...and...excuse me I need a lie-down....

I do not think that height is a prerequisite for being a twink, but I

TwinkCode v1.11
This should be the new, improved and approved twink code.
It applies some minor changes to v1.10alpha and reconciles
difference between v1.10alpha and v1.01.
As before any new material will be marked as:
____
\\// New material (v1.11)

/\
//\\ end new material
and changed material will also be marked, with smaller triangles
__

I hope this makes review and comment easier.
TwinkCode v1.11
Some people out here aren't satisfied with BearCode or SmurfCode. It
doesn't speak to us. We're twinks, and damn proud of it. While bears live
for hair and smurfs for humor, a twink lives for style. As such, style
factors are the major way of recognizing a twink. Unlike bears and smurfs,
a twink's style can't be rated by degree--to be a twink, one must have a
good sense of style. The ideal twink knows what he can't wear, and how to
wear what he can. The clothes make the twink.
Clothing is not exclusively the determining factor in a twink, though. The
twink's crowning glory is his hair. Long or short, straight or wavy, it
must be perfect. Hell is a lifetime of bad hair.
The main Twink identifier is a 4 part code comprised of:
T - Type of twink
C - Color of Hair
L - Length of Hair
and whether it's (s)traight, (w)avy, or (c)urly
T - Type of twink
1 - BeachTwink: The beach twink is often a sun-
bleached blonde, well tanned, and well defined.
Sub-genres of beach twink are the VBall Twink and
SurferTwink.
2 - NuevoWest Twink: The old west was never quite
like this. Colorful, sharp, and not nearly
weathered enough, if cowboys were fashion slaves,
they'd look like this.
3 - Street Twink: Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch have
nothing on this twink. Urban fashion, be it rap
or grunge, is raised to an art form by this
delicious one.
4 - The All-American Twink: Remember that quarterback
you could never have in high school? This *is*
him. Athletic, active, it's amazing how his hair
stays in place.
5 - EuroTwink: Think of Armani suits. Think of
Italian convertibles. The finest European
designers would love to have him on the runway.
6 - The Twink Next Door: The boy next door never
looked this good (well, mine never did). A
suburban sensibility becomes a showcase for a
gorgeous young guy.
7 - RadicalTwink: This twink marches to the beat of a
different drummer. Possessing a style, while not
necessarily unique, but definitely uncommon, this
twink will go out on a limb to grab your
attention.
8 - GymTwink: The GymTwink may attempt any of the
above styles (and pull them off successfully) but
it's always that drop-dead-gorgeous bod that's
overshadowing everything else. Even in sack cloth
(we're talking *really* radical 7 here) he'd look
incredible. GymTwinks should include what style
they're attempting in their code (i.e. T8(5))
____
\\// New material (v1.11)
\/
9 - AppalachianTwink: This twink is often
mistaken for the younger brother of Jthro
Clampett (_The_Beverly_Hillbillies_). Usually
dressed in overalls and sometimes the above
mentioned sack cloth. Shoes are optional, and
so is the shirt.

Twinks come in all hair colors, natural and unnatural.
C - Color of Hair
0 - black (raven)
1 - dark brown
2 - brown
3 - light brown
4 - auburn
5 - dark red
6 - bright red
7 - strawberry blonde
8 - Blonde. Most of the hair on his body is blonde.
9 - Totally Blonde. Every strand of hair on his body
(by definition must be natural).
X - Other (purple, blue, etc...)
If hair color is assisted, it should list the original color in parentheses
(i.e. CX(7)).
Hair length is important too. Some of us like long hair, some of us like
short hair, some of us like any hair at all as long as it looks good.
L - Length of Hair
0 - Shaved/bald
1 - verrrrry short, buzzed
2 - short enough for a banker, suitable for business
3 - medium length, barely over collar
4 - shoulder length
5 - part-way down the back
6 - *really* long, like down to his butt
The last modifier is waviness of hair, and is designated by letter.
(s)traight
(w)avy
(c)urly

h - the 'hairlessness' factor (opposite of NBCS "f") refers
to body hair.
h++ SMOOTH body - virtually no hair
h+ little hair
h some hair

h- above average body hair
h-- veritable furball (almost a bear)
(h) can be further refined to cover specific body areas:
hc - chest

These can be used specifically, or to identify an area which
differs from the rest of the body. Therefore, if you're
smooth, except for your legs, you could list h++(hl-). If
your hairlesness is a result of shaving or depilatories, you
should list the original state in parentheses, i.e. h(--)++.

ADDITIONAL PUNCTUATION
The following aren't graded, they are just flags attached to
the overall classification:
v for variable, said trait is not very rigid, may
change with time or with individual interaction
? for traits where there is no HARD information
available and the value is completely guessed
: for traits which are observed but uncertain,
e.g. a twink who is wearing a lot of clothes, so
you can't be SURE he's an h+, but his forearms
REALLY suggest that he is, hence h+
! for cases where the trait is as close to a
prototype as possible, or an exemplary case of
a specific trait... e.g. the ultimate h++!
() for indicating "cross-overs" or ranges. A twink
who goes from k to k++ depending on the situation
(i.e. mostly "k") could use k(++)
You can make the punctuation as detailed as desired,
although the best ones to read are the ones which are the
most clear and simple to understand.

No. No, no, no, no, NOOOOOO! (see a++!). Let us give incarnation
1.11 ONE MONTH to exist, and then we can add a height code. Height
is not a requirement to twinkdom, but it could be considered a
characteristic, like hair color and length.

STRAIGHT!
AAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!!! It's even worse than having
them turn into bears!
Rodent! Talk to her. I'm feeling phleklempt...

Gay twinks should *always* be able to be turned back to there natural gay
urges. Now they were turned into bears, that could be a travesty. Just
getting the attitude back alone could take longer than the lifetime of the
universe.
