That’s when my boss doesn’t “agree” with the data so he pulls a number out of his ass.
Half analyst, half therapist… it’s the … Analrapist!
As a straight guy, some of those seem kinda mean. I thought, they liked their twinks.
To my gay brothers, are they mean? Or am I just too straight to get it?
People loved to fuck them but didn't value them. Like how people are about prostitutes
They liked their twinks like many men today like their women.
I.e. they don't like them as people. But they enjoy their bodies.
No they did not. The roman republic was very similar to modern America except the guy who ruined it was a bisexual hobag who seemed to care about the proleterii. As a note, it would be culturally improper to refer to a Roman man who exclusively tops men and women as bisexual, but a man who bottoms for men as well as topping women would fit that term. Julius Caesar's bisexuality was a political scandal, and he was referred to by his political opponents as "every woman's man and every man's woman".
Rome loved twinks like America loves trans women, the sex industry and political world tell wildly different stories, and there was cultural back and forth between "hell yeah" "fucking degenerates" and "lol f@g"
So you're saying the Romans already used "Sick!" as a descriptor two millennia ago?
1000 years of Romans so I'll be surprised if they haven't used all of our slang at some point.
Ok straight people, y'all should know that not every bottom is a twink.
There's also twunk - a twink and a hunk. A twink with muscles but still hairless, incredibily smooth. A twank on the other hand, a twank is no good. That's a twink and a skank. Essentially just a ragdoll being passed around from twink to twunk to bear to otter...
It's very difficult to maintain the lifestyle of a twank-versatile because this often leads to a lot of self-hatred and denial, especially among the political or religious types, so they try to realign their sexual orientation through therapy.
Follow-up question: Is every twink a bottom?
puer is just the regular word for boy, as in ”young male” without any sexual connotation.
Words can mean different things with different tones and contexts.
Oh that one? He's a guy. But him over there he's a boy
A lot of these are just regular words that could also be used for twinkies (especially puer seems funny, calling twink a literal boy).
But we still see influences from the Roman empire today - in financial industry entry positions are often (junior) analyst.
How uh young were they before I make any remarks
Wonder where the Roman Catholic Church gets it from.
it's not that well-known so i don't blame the tweeter, but the word starting with E is a slur. i'm not sure if there's an exact replacement, though, because "Inuit" only refers to one community out of I think three?
pullus - puella?
Wait does calling girls "chicks" really go all the way back to Latin?
i wonder whether the italian word "la moglie" (the wife) comes from "mollia", i.e. "the soft one".
Ok so a funny thing is that in my language debilas just means someone really stupid it is an insult but is it a coincidence or not because the roman empire had only traded amber with us. And if that is the case I wonder how when trading amber someone diverted the conversation to twinks so many times that it became part of the language. Or it is just a coincidence.
The Lithuanian meaning is the same as in English, French, Russian, Finnish, etc. The meaning has changed during the two millenia and has then been borrowed into Lithuanian.
English has this word?
See here: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/debile#Noun
And in other languages: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/debil
From this, we can infer that twinks were obviously a central part of the Roman conception of the world around them
