This article is a fascinating, if slightly long, read on the erotics and
history of cuteness. Rachel Poliquin discusses dwarves in royal courts,
Tom Thumb weddings between children, dolls, miniatures, and pet
weddings. It seems cute things are appealing because they can be
nurtured and babied, taken care of and shamelessly lorded over. Just a little
hardcore cultural analysis to complicate all that time-wasting you've
been doing on Cute Overload.
