Otter gay man

In the gay world, an otter is considered a thin gay male that is hairy and may or may not use a trimmer to shorten body hair. Some otters have beards, and some do not.

In gay slang, an ‘otter’ refers to a specific subset of gay men who are often characterized by a lean, athletic build with body hair. This term usually describes men who fall between the categories of ‘twink’ (slender, youthful) and ‘bear’ (larger, hairier men).
