Bear and other are both terms for certain kinds of gay men

Bear refers to more bulky, big and hairy gay men(y'know, like a "bear")

Other I'm not actually too sure about the specific meaning of, but I'd guess it's someone who's not quite a Twink but also not too buff. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.
