This is all extremely debunked. The "Dr. Mews" quoted in the article lost his license to practice in the UK, largely on the basis of these claims.
Maybe the attractiveness part is debunked, but I used to be a mouth breathing. Since forcing myself to breath through my nose, I've noticed that seasonal allergies don't affect me any more, and the health of my tongue and gums has improved.
This shit again. For anyone who's never seen it before, there is a guy on the internet who's personal crusade is to establish 'mewing' as the key to facial good looks, regardless of the fact that it is widely acknowledged that restructuring your jaw past puberty is a fool's errand.

I like the example of katy perry vs candice swanepoel. As if either of those women was not considered extremely attractive.

Why is this garbage on hacker news?

Anecdotal baloney combined with pseudoscience and misrepresented before/after photos of people who had braces/orthodontic work. LOL, no.

Bonus points if you can spot at least thirteen things wrong and/or laughable about the article.

Spoiler: it's not hard.
