French term or phrase: Dans quelle position sexuelle suis-je le plus beau ?
This is from a game for "lovers" in which they have to answer intimate questions from a series of cards, the winner gets a prize card which entitles him/her to such things as breakfast in bed for a week etc

I translated this as "Which sexual position do you like me best in?"But the client has complained saying:
NON : DANS quelle position suis-je le plus BEAU et pas le meilleur !!

I must be missing something here (mirrors above the bed?)

neutral  Tony M: Not really, sinc eit isn't specifically the POSITION that is attractive, but rather, me in it! You might have a posiiton that is... well, at least 'inviting' (!), but doesn't exactly flatter the person

In which sexual position am I most handsome ?


Explanation:
Ok, so most anglos will claim that a man cannot be beautiful, which however, is what "beau" means, like it or not. Then how about handsome? that should be admissible, right?
Apparently, the women here see nothing aesthetic in a man in a sexual position, so to them he has to be "attractive". I wouldn't know. I am not attracted to men in sexual positions.
