The things we find cute are not necessarily the things which we associate with predators. We find prey animals cute too.
The peacock jumping spider is cute af.

I like spiders. wait fuck they are predators too. the only animal which I can think of that aren't, are fish, and heck yeah, one of my favorite animals IN THEORY but they just suck, I mean they are in the water, how will you cuddle or form a bond, you will drown upon entering the fish's dome, it will suffocate upon entering your world. it is an impossible relationship, it cannot be. I want floating fish in air, can someone engineer this
Why do humans find humans attractive?
That's kind of a dumb question. Reproduction.
I'm not gonna fuck an animal just because I find it cute.
Evolutionarily I'm gonna wanna fuck another person I find cute because dna says procreate or the species dies.
It's only a dumb question is you don't think a little further. Go on, you can do it.
