About
Type Timing also known as Type of Timing or On That Type Timing is an internet slang term used to describe the act of having sex. The term was popularized on TikTok throughout 2023, largely by TikToker @quanos2x, but has been used on the app as early as November 2022, often in videos where users act out humping an object along with a comedic caption about being "on that type timing."
Origin
The origins of "type timing" are unclear. One of the earliest known videos to use the phrase was posted by TikToker[1] @mianicoleddd on October 6th, 2022 (shown below). The video is captioned "what type of timing you on," followed by the caption, "I'm on whatever timing you on," garnering over 24,000 views in 11 months. On April 11th, 2023, HITC[11] defined the term as meaning "to have sex." The term "type of timing" was first defined on Urban Dictionary[2] on April 13th, 2023, referencing sex.
