To start off, "zesty," when used by TikTokers, most often means flamboyant in a way that comes off as homosexual. To be "zesty" in the eyes of a straight male TikToker is like them calling you "gay" in a middle school insult.
On TikTok, zesty has become a derogatory term for gay or effeminate men. It’s often used to describe videos of men or boys acting in a way that is stereotypically feminine. Using “zesty” to mock someone for behavior they categorize as “feminine” or “gay” makes it a homophobic and sexist term.

Zesty has always been tasty in my experience. Referring to a guy might just mean their, well, tasty looking, ie, handsome but I don't know. yes it’s a newer term that i’ve heard people referring to as gay or “ fruity” M subscribers in the NoStupidQuestions community. Ask away!.
