perceptions of cuteness i am ambivalent about the old meme reference in this section that the below poster complains about however i do have a real criticism the line here are good evolutionary reasons to expect humans to find juvenile humans and perhaps juvenile animals in general cute should definitly either expound on the alluded to good reasons or at the least link to somewhere in wikipedia where these reasons are enumerated and explained b mcgrauw not logged in i think the whole perceptions of cuteness section should be removed to improve the focus of the article what things people find cute and possible reasons for that is an interesting question but it is an anthropological question and serves only to muddle this article in any case the every time you masturbate joke should be removed it was popular among internet humorists for a while but not really worthy of note outside of its own article also it is an off color joke and goes completely against the tone of the rest of the article any thoughts hey i was looking for imformation on how to take care of abandoned kittens and came acrossed the discussion board i cant believe like a page was devoted to whether or not an article should linked on the page who really cares i hope yas rnt losing sleep over it n i dunt mean to sound like a biotch but its boring to read about all the complaints and the point of the board is to write about cats kittens atleast thats what the impression i got could b wrong though anon the reference to the every time you masturbate joke should be removed it does nothing to enhance the article and every time some kid looks up kitten on wikipedia a parent has to answer questions about masturbation it's offensive if nothing else in response to the first anon this page is actually for discussion on how the article can be improved some off topic comments are usually tolerated but long discussion threads are generally seen as disruptive in response to wabazana wikipedia is not censored for the protection of minors however i do agree that this particular reference is a bit of a systemic bias towards nerdy references i've boldly changed it to refer to hello kitty which was already in 'see also' which i think we can agree is going to be more familiar to the average reader lovely though it is is perceptions of cuteness really encyclopaedic well it's interesting it's written in a neutral point of view and as regards verifiability if 'kittens are cute' isn't common knowledge then i don't know what is so yes i for one think it's encyclopaedic t c a i read about the ' perceptions of cuteness discussion on the wiki kitten page in the wall street journal wed august th edition and was thrilled the cuteness of kittens cats is one of my favorite subjects to the annoyance of everyone who knows me i do agree with another poster's comment that the pics of the kittens on this page aren't necessarily the best feel free to use this picture of my kitten pj i believe when one sets his her eyes on this image there can be no question of the cuteness of kittens earnest t bass is legendary and also a good example
