There's Something in My Navel
Things that are frequently described as cute: dollhouse furniture, new skirts, the recently born, friendly people over the age of 70, Ralph Macchio, short girls
Things that are infrequently described as cute: world leaders, barns, Willem Dafoe, things that are brown, angry people over the age of 70, tall girls
Ever since becoming the 2nd tallest girl in the class, I have longed to be referred to as "cute." To this day, I will deliberately provoke the term just to mollify myself. (See A Concern and Another Theory* for evidence.)
You would think that being able to reach things on high shelves and occasionally thrown the term "elegant" would be enough.
Sigh. ¶ 10:08 PM

"Cute? Baby ducks are cute, I HATE cute! I want to be exotic, and mysterious!"
We all want to me what we're not, but I do get the cute thing entirely. I have not been called cute since I was 7. Beautiful? Sure. Attractive? Of course. Cute? Never.

I have spent all my life jealous of the tall girls and there "elegant" and "graceful" and "sophisticated". When you're 5'1" with freckles, all you get is cute...and we can't reach things on the high shelves to boot.
