The term "thirst trap" has been around for a while, and I'd venture to guess it emerged during the social media boom. It's a general term for photos that are revealing and/or provocative. The implication is that these photos bait "thirsty", some sort of zoomer phrase meaning "horny", men into commenting on them.

BTW, part of the reason why zoomers and gen alpha are becoming retarded is that a lot of terms zoomers use are copy-pasta'd from black slang/eubonics/African-American Vernacular English (it's a retarded academic and politically correct term to mean nigga language).

What happens is that blacks on Twiter/TikTok use a bunch of words as slang to mean certain mundane shit since they even type in eubonics, a lot of which that has been around in their "community" for years, if not decades, but easily impressionable and smoothbrained zoomers/gen alpha kids pick it up. It used to be Twitter, but now with the current generation it's from TikTok, then it goes from TikTok, filters back to Twitter, then spreads to other platforms. I fucking hate it as well.

There's a bunch of words you probably have heard being used purely because of this.

Netflix and chill - Inviting someone over/going to someone's place to eventually have sex with them
Thirsty - desperate for sex
Rizz - Charisma/having a swagger that makes the other party want to be with you
let them cook - Don't interrupt them while they're doing a good/smart/awesome thing.
cooked - They're done for, finished. No longer relevant to the conversation and/or lost their groove.
vibing - Literally just "chilling". Or they find something they're listening to pleasant to have playing.

Take note, full blown eubonics is near fucking impossible to understand when in written form. But a lot of the more easier to "understand" concepts, like what I wrote above, ended up being adopted by non-basketball-American zoomers and gen alphas.

The next generation are literally getting fucking dumber because they're listening to what black people are saying for slang. It's scary as hell.
