The internet is currently engaged in a heated debate over whether these two guys qualify as “twunks”
A post shared by Emil Wakim (@emilwakim)Are these SNL stars twunks or just… attractive guys in their late 20s?A New York-based writer sparked quite the debate when he posted a picture of SNL co-stars Emil Wakim and Marcello Hernandez and declared there was a “twunk takeover” of the iconic late-night show.While the definition of “twunk” is loose, there’s widespread agreement the term refers to a slim, yet muscular young gay.
The word is literally a mixture of “twink” and “hunk,” if that helps.

Wakim is too lean, and Hernandez, 27, is too boyish. They’re also not gay, a seeming prerequisite for any archetype in the gay animal kingdom.
Gotta be gay to be a twunk, sorry. I need to see proof! https://t.co/6VmikabeP6these boys are cute but what does twunk even mean https://t.co/iUqUa9Sb2iWords used to mean something https://t.co/b2ROW56yiccute and young does not a twunk make https://t.co/DMxFNfX3l4So, they’re actually both heterosexuals.
