Cute is the epitome of all that is babies, kittens, puppies, furry little yellow chicks, and incredibly huge-eyed Japanese anime schoolgirls.
However... we all learned language for a reason. Why not try to describe things the way they really are? For instance, use attractive if something indeed seems to pull at you. Or how about delightful in the place of cute if an image gives you joy?
I can't say I've ever really given any thought to this over abundance of "cute" before now, but I promise I'll try to use my words like a big girl from now on, and use ambrosial next time.
