The Cute Show

"Why “The Cute Show”? I feel like Cute is one of the most underrated, misunderstood forms of expression. I am obsessed with the reaction that cuteness can elicit, the confusing violent reaction that arises when confronted with extreme cuteness. Extreme cuteness triggers a response that is nearly irresistible. A physical AND emotive state unlocking a biological response. Almost a sleeper response. Being confronted with cuter stimuli triggers MORE brain activity, the flood of aggression is the way the body tries to control the overwhelming high your body feels.

Cuteness can also be the erotization of powerlessness. The complicated power dynamic fed by the feeling of dominance over the unthreatening object, which in turn, exerts its OWN influence on the beholder.. "
