Phobia

I was searching the internet to try and find the phobia name for the fear of midgets/dwarfs/small personages. And apparently it is one of the few things that have not been given a name, along with the fear of feet (how would you run away from them?). So if you know what the name is, please let me know. Fanx!!

But in the course of my usual daily investigations I found a list of actual documented Phobias and pulled a few out, just to amuse myself, (keep in mind these are actual documented phobias):

Arithmophobia- Fear of numbers

Blennophobia- Fear of slime.

Cacophobia- Fear of ugliness.

Dendrophobia- Fear of trees.

Ephebiphobia- Fear of teenagers.

Genophobia- Fear of sex.

Homichlophobia- Fear of fogs.

Ithyphallophobia- Fear of seeing, thinking about or having an erect penis.

Judeophobia- Fear of Jews.

Kenophobia- Fear of voids or empty spaces.

Logophobia- Fear of words.

Mythophobia- Fear of myths or stories or false statements.

Nomatophobia- Fear of names.

Ommetaphobia or Ommatophobia- Fear of eyes.

Parthenophobia- Fear of virgins or young girls

Ithyphallophobia, can you imagine being gay and having this phobia?

Sinistrophobia has always been an amusing concept to me. And triskaidekaphobia is one of the most euphonic words ever 🙂
