The thirst is real

 

Oh, yes, Thirst Traps are a thing. Let's get Merriman tell us how it goes:

This being a largely visual phenomenon, Instagram is a primary locus for the thirst trap where there’s even a hashtag, #thirsttrapthursdays. Many of these might be confidently identified as NSFW, but the term has clearly spread to have broader applications, with healthy doses of internet irony. Thirst trap is entering mainstream language and journalism:

Indeed, it seems to me that this is what is happening with the idea of the “thirst trap” — shorthand, in its way, for a woman (or Idris Elba) owning her (or his) sexuality and deploying it when, where, and how she sees fit.

Its use is now even becoming figurative itself—a metaphor on top of a metaphor—as it becomes used in ways that don’t reference a photo on social media but rather something that could or should attract attention in real life, with the term’s meaning consequently broadening, much as we now also use bandwidth to mean “mental or emotional capacity” or troll to mean “to harass or criticize” or viral to mean “suddenly popular”:

[Justin Trudeau]’s not just a thoughtful and empathetic leader, he's also an A+ thirst trap.

So a Thirst Trap is indeed a thing that has entered the English vocabulary. And the winner of this year's #thirsttrap contest according to @str8upgayporn is Gael Kriok (@g.bajr where he appears under Gabriel Barbosa, which I think may be his birth name) and he's a sight for sore eyes. Take a look:

 

I really have nothing to add, because an image is worth a thousand words. Hope you enjoyed the view. Also, if you follow him on IG you’ll get to see pics of his adorable doggie. 

XOXO

P.S.  of course, the goodies (and the true reason why he was the top thirst trap are in his Twitter: @kriokrio22 and he's certainly worth a follow. Who knew Twitter was the new Tumblr??

It's probably in the water in Brazil, hunny.

... and he got to fuck @RhyheimX, who got BACK to one million followers on Twitter, after Twitter closed his account last year. And that's another achievement.

And you can tell why he's so enormously popular, right? 

P.P.S: you can follow his OnlyFans, too, if you have some extra cash laying around and you can see with you own eyes how extremely versatile he is...
