Alliumphobia - the Fear of Garlic and a list of other weird phobias

Alliumphobia - the fear of garlic.

Alliumphobics stay away from places like Gilroy's Garlic Festival...and certain pizza joints...and, of course, they might be inclied to hang out with mythical bad guys with fangs who come awake only at night.

Those with alliumphobia get nausea, feel sick, fear they might die, sweat, lose their breath and become dizzy.

I can't imagine it being any fun to be so afraid of anything, much less a bulb, that stinks...but can add taste. 

Alliumphobia is weird enough....

How about -

Chemophobia, prejudice against artificial substances in favour of 'natural' substances.

Christianophobia, fear or hatred of Christians or Christianity.

Ephebophobia, fear of youth or adolescents

Homophobia, fear, dislike, or hatred of homosexual people, often used pejoratively to describe a moral objection to homosexuality.

Islamophobia, fear-induced prejudice against Muslims or Islamic culture.

Gerontophobia — fear of growing old or a hatred of old people.

Xenophobia — fear or dislike of foreigners

Ailurophobia -- fear of cats

Emetophobia — fear of vomiting.

Androphobia — fear of males.

Gymnophobia — fear of nudity.

Tetraphobia - fear of the number 4.

A very long list of phobias.

 

What are you afraid of?
