Teenage boys often get a bad press, but I just walked in to a raucous kitchen with my son and his mates, who had nothing to do this evening, following a recipe for cornflake covered chicken, and having the time of their lives (they all consented to the pic going on Twitter!)

I'm looking at the single best looking male face you've come across (it's for a thing) & want to get a feel for common perception (I've looked at the science). Could you post a single image here of the best looking male IYO, absolutely no limits on age etc. RT if you don't mind?

Anyone feeling embarrassed, take heart. Oldest son went to a perfume store & was handed a paper cup of coffee beans to cleanse sense of smell. Confused,he knocked them back & stood chewing the whole lot for a few minutes to the shop assistant’s horror. He’s mortified. Bless him🤣
