It *is* cute. It has that "baby" look. I remember reading an article about a study that tried to determine the reaction that we have to "baby" anythings.
First they analized what makes a face seem like a baby -- turns out that it's the proportion of eye size to head size more than anything else.
And it's not just humans who have specific reactions to babies -- of any species. Case-in-point, the "interspecial mothering" picture that Tony posted previously.
With or without all of these studies, though, babies DO affect
me that way -- and I don't care why!
