Allegedly, it’s piggybacking off some evolutionary tribalism instinct to protect our species’ young. But the instinct went too hard, so we want to preserve everyone else’s young too, like puppies and kitties.
But this explanation still doesn’t account for people who respond to baby schema in animals but find it repulsive in human babies lol
I know people who feel this, but like, why? It makes no sense to me. Like is it a crossed wires thing?
You know how animals get really agressive once they have offspring around?

But this seems like the exact opposite. Squeezing the young until they pop is the opposite of protecting them.
