Kenta Takada (2016) said that Miyanoshita (2008) said that the design of chocolates made to look like rhinoceros beetle larvae is a design that is both cute and disgusting. [25] [26] Note to reader: we’re talking babies and puppies here, so don’t use it as a synonym of ‘handsome’ or you may get some hurt looks (you’ve been warned!).This finding has also been demonstrated in a study conducted by T. R. Alley in which he had 25 undergraduate students (consisting of 7 men and 18 women) rate the cuteness of infants depending on different characteristics such as age, behavioral traits, and physical characteristics such as head shape, and facial feature configuration. [15] Preference in young children Doug Jones, a visiting scholar in anthropology at Cornell University, said that the faces of monkeys, dogs, birds and even the fronts of cars can be made to appear cuter by morphing them with a " cardioidal" ( heart-shaped) mathematical transformation. Jones said that negative cardioidal strain results in faces appearing less mature and cuter by causing facial features at the top of the face to expand outward and upward while causing features at the bottom of the face to contract inward and upward. [5] There are suggestions that hormone levels can affect a person's perception of cuteness. Konrad Lorenz suggests that "caretaking behaviour and affective orientation" towards infants as an innate mechanism, and this is triggered by cute characteristics such as "chubby cheeks" and large eyes. The Sprengelmeyer et al. (2009) study expands on this claim by manipulating baby pictures to test groups on their ability to detect differences in cuteness. The studies show that premenopausal women detected cuteness better than same aged postmenopausal women. Furthermore, to support this claim, women taking birth control pills that raise levels of reproductive hormones detect cuteness better than same aged women not taking the pill. [14] It’s actually the Latin American name for the ‘bogeyman’, but it can also refer to a ‘fruit’, a ‘cookie’ or even the female genitalia. a b c Karraker, Katherine; Stern, Marilyn (1990).

There’s also the iMac, which over the years, Apple designed to be subtly adorable. It “persuaded traditionally non-computer users to buy into the world of computing and hence, sold more units,” Fernando writes. He refers to “cute filtering” as a component of cute engineering that allows consumers to personalize their kawaii experience, the way iMac users could choose the color of their unit. In this way, users can create their own kawaii experience. “Using a cute filter, users can freely choose the cuteness parameters such as color, size, motion, smell, and taste to adjust their desired cute output.” a b c Koyama, Reiko; Takahashi, Yuwen; Mori, Kazuo (2006).

Finally, ‘tierno’ literally means ‘tender’ in English, but it’s also an extremely common way of saying ‘cute’, especially when talking about something sweet, soft, vulnerable, lovable and the likes.
