This always feels to me aggressive and rude and I don't know why people do it in photos.

Watching John Torode on Masterchef he sticks his tongue out when tasting food makes me sick.

Nothing new.
Each generation has its own "cool thing"

Not my cup of tea - to each their own

It looks terrible and what are all the finger gestures about?

Because people find it fun and silly

Why not just let them live? Surely we had silly fashions growing up?

If i stuck my tongue as a child i would be told off as it is a very rude thing to do.
I agree Redhead56,JohnT drives me mad,then again i really do not like the man.

Middle aged woman doing it looks gross & ridiculous - I think it’s supposed to look sexy.

well it's obviously sexually suggestive, so i guess it's trying to shock.

A helpful sentiment to bear in mind. I shall do just that. Thanks Summerlove.
