A New study On Cute Aggression Shows Why We Love To Squeeze Cute Babies and Puppies

Health

You must’ve heard about the term cute aggression because people often use this term when they want to pinch, bite cute babies or puppies. According to a recent study done by some researcher on cute aggression, it’s been found that people often like to pinch or squeeze babies or puppies because they get overwhelmed after seeing them. Some people might feel extra joyous after seeing cute babies or puppies due to which they get the feeling of squeezing such lovely objects. This case study shows that many people respond emotionally when they look at some beautiful objects in front of them. It also shows how human behaviour changes quickly when they see cute objects.

More than fifty-four people aged from 18-50 participated in this case study on cute aggression. According to the report, these participants were shown images of lovely objects. Majority of the participants said after looking at cute objects things like “I want to eat you up!” or “I want to squeeze it” which showed the significance of cute aggression. According to the researcher, people were getting more cute aggressive when they were shown more sweet pictures of little animals or babies which indicates how quickly our brain responds to the sweet things. One of the essential things about cute aggression is that our mind and heart reacts simultaneously whenever we see any cute stuff in front of us.

However, researchers of this case study got more shocked when they realised that the participants found animals to be cuter than babies. Many researchers think this could be because of the way these pictures were presented to the participants since the photos of little animals were cuter. But, this case study, in a nutshell, shows if you feel good whenever you see cute things then it indicates that you’re in a good mental health condition.
