At what age do people lose the ability to be cute?

    Most people will agree that babies are cute.

    I think the majority lose this ability before they hit nine. It's not that they can't still be funny in an innocent way, but...

    I hate when teenagers, and even adults try to be cute/childlike. I feel that if it must be attempted, then it's not real/amusing.

    You certainly enjoy making threads don't you?

    Also children are never cute imo

    Dogs are always cute though

    About 7ish for lads I'd say.

    Girls - yeah, 9ish; but they can be 'cute' when they're sad until they're about 17 :P


    I hate on shows like Britains Got Talent when horrible 12/13 year olds try to be 'cute'.. eurgh

    1 year. That's the cute phase but after no sleep for a year they get, um, not so cute. It's called the terrible two's for a reason.

    Other younger (under 13) people are evil genius'. 13-19 a test from some higher being. After that have no clue but meh...

    five. five year olds can be cute. after that its annoying. What's worse is people who describe you as cute... how desperately patronising.

    I think Patty from the Simpson's thought us a lesson:

    The older they are, the cuter they ain't!

    Nope, I'm only in second med! Just interested in most things... Believe me, I'd write all my threads about physiology if I thought anyone would answer/nobody'd lock them.

    I think children are pure evil, they use their cuteness to get away with murder but that in itself is very cute.

    Cute until they stop looking like the "I hate sand castles" fella.

    http://senditout.com/1/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/i_hate_sand_castles.jpg

    After the toddler phase, I don't have as much time for children unless they can do an amusing trick.
    Cute is for fluffy animals and kids.

    i retract the sentiment that i hate all children, the i hate sandcastles kid is a hero.... kids with attitude is what we need, not "cute" sticky-handed, snotty-nosed rosy-cheeked noisebags :)
