About
Damn This White Boy Is Sexy! refers to a series of memes based on a comic panel in which a scantily clad woman makes a mental comment about a sexual appeal of a white man, with the thought bubble reading "Damn this white boy is sexy!" In edits, the plumber in the original panel is replaced with various characters.
Origin
On August 6th, 2018, Blacknwhitecomics[1] artist Yair started a porn comic "Mike the Plumber in Make America Great Again" in which a white plumber has sex with several black women. On April 15th, the eight panel of the comic was posted.[2] In the panel, one of the women observes the plumber at work and makes a mental comment about the man's sexual attractiveness (censored version shown below).

The panel did not see use in memes until October 2018. On October 21st, an anonymous 4chan[3] user posted the first known edit based on the comic to /ck/ board (censored version shown below). The exact origin of the edit, in which the plumber was replaced with a Pepe in a tuxedo, is currently unknown.
Spread
In the following year, the image was reposted on various 4chan[4][5] boards multiple times. On March 22nd, 2019, iFunny[6] user SAYORI reposted the image, with the post gaining over 120 smiles. On May 4th, 2019, an unlogged Imgur[7] user posted the earliest known derivative meme based on the image, replacing Pepe with a photograph of /r/Drama moderator (censored version shown below, left).
The format did not see major spread until on April 1st, 2020, Facebook[8] group "I slap funny captions over doge templates" posted a Doge version of the image, gaining over 650 reactions and 930 shares in one month (censored version shown below, right).
