* [[spoiler:Kyros]] from ''Manga/OnePiece'' outright refused to hold his daughter unless he was wearing gloves out of fear that [[TheseHandsHaveKilled his past as a murderer]] would somehow taint her. After a decade or so where his daughter has grown up, the events of the story made him decide that he'll be the "dirty worker" of the peaceful kingdom of Dressrosa in order to defend it, even if her daughter has to see it. By the end, he finally holds his daughter's hand by his bare hand, which reminded him of the time he was with his (late) wife.

Doing so would be very easy for her physically, but because she can't do so morally, babies (and small animals) terrify her.

This trope happens when a character is nervous about holding a baby. They could be a first-time parent (usually a dad), a relative, or just someone who's told to hold a baby despite having no experience with them. There are various reasons why they could hate handling babies--usually it's because they're [[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength afraid of hurting them]], however others just don't get along well with babies or consider it "beneath them" to handle one, and some don't want to hold a baby for fear that they will soil the holder's nice clothes.
