Babies always stare at you for ages. apparently babies like to stare at faces that are considered conventionally attractive and I found this out when I searched "why do babies always stare at me"
Babies stare at me because of my facial hair. They're terrified. Or I'm beautiful, but probably the beard.
Why not both?
Well TIL. I thought it was freaky how that always happened.
Opened this expecting to be devastated and the top comment is one I've never heard of that has happened to me a lot recently. 🥰
This is a great way to find out!!
BRB - gotta go out and stare at a bunch of babies. i assume that might be creepy to some parents, so i will just tell them “it’s okay - i am just curious if your infant is attracted to me” which will totally make the parents feel relieved that i am not just some random weirdo.
D’oh! Not like that! It’s a “science experiment”. I don’t want to hear about anyone getting arrested for a question I posted on Lemmy 🤣
