That’s a myth. He had dentures, but they were not wooden. https://www.mountvernon.org/library/digitalhistory/digital-encyclopedia/article/false-teeth |
What if you woke up today from being in a coma for 4 years?

Who is alleging that? |
Numerous biographers and historians. |
Monroe. Soldier so had to be fit. Doesn’t look terrible.
Washington had fake teeth, Adams was chubby and dictatorial (look up Alien and Sedition Acts), Jefferson probably had a ton of STDs and Madison was super short and I’d be scared of Dolly. |
Monroe. Look at that steely gaze.

This is why we can’t have fun threads. Also, Ben Franklin wasn’t a president. |
No, he was not. But he was a *PLAYAH* oh yeah! |
I'm a big fan of both Dolly Madison and Abigail Adams. So I'd go with Madison and Adams as long as it was a threesome. I've never been in a threesome so I'm sure it would be historical. |
I don’t like Jefferson and don’t think he was a good guy, but you’re not making the right case here. There’s no proof that his sexual relationship with Hemings started before she was 16, and while that’s young, it wasn’t weirdly young in the 18th century especially among the landed class. And she and her kids didn’t really work as slaves. The entire plantation was set up in a tiered system with the Hemings family in a privileged position. Sally lived as essentially a concubine and probably had more luxury than most married women of the era. She was herself 7/8 European in ancestry. Her children were educated and freed once they reached adult hood. (Freeing them as children might have chased some logistical/legal issues. I believe the ones that could not or did not pass a white left the state after emancipation to avoid the risks inherent to being a free black in the south.). Also note Sally was essentially free in France and could have remained there. Also note that tsailly’s brother Marti no was the Butler at Monticello and protected the Jefferson property when the British marched through (Jefferson of course fled in advance of the British). It’s pretty certain he could have self emancipated by telling the British where Jefferson had gone, or even giving them the Jefferson silver which Martin had hidden, but his loyalty was to Jefferson. My take on Jefferson is that he was a good looking, silver tongued, charismatic guy that a lot of people liked and as many people felt was kind of smarmy. He was idealistic in his youth but really really liked the finer things in life and his idealism crumbled in front of his desire to live a comfortable life with good wine and nice things and nice clothes. He got so in debt he was unable to free his slaves as he had said he would. He is one of the few founding fathers that saw no action in the revolutionary war, always retreating before the British arrived and managing to always maintain pretty comfortable circumstances while people like Washington were literally starving and freezing and seeing their friends fall to dust early, gangrene and gut wounds. In short for purposes of this thread — Jefferson was probably a good one night stand but was not a good guy. Washington is a much better pick—but unclear if he has any game as he was not known as a lady’s man at all. |

Excluding everything but looks and general knowledge about personality, I'm going to go with Jefferson among the first five. But overall, I think Rutherford B. Hayes is my man. (There's a sentence I never thought I'd type.). |
Rutherford B Hayes was sex on a stick as a young man ![]() |
