In the section about Caretaking please replace:
"Melanie Glocker argued in 2009 that the cuteness that an infant embodies can motivate the type of care one takes while caring for the infant".
with:
"Melanie Glocker argued in 2009 that cuteness of an infant motivates caretaking in unrelated adults"
It seems strange that this article ignore the self-evident fact that 'cute' adults often elicit a caregiver response, and that makeup and dress may be used by adults to emphasise such traits.
