If you've never been hit by a flying wooden shoe, you wouldn't understand the Dutch-Phobia thingy.
Papophobia, phobia of the pope. I mean how the hell can you be scared of the damn pope?
I dont know about stupid sounding phobias since Shrinks make their money by dreaming up new illnesses every day (sorry I think the whole thing is BS) but as for fearing the pope. Why not ? People all over the world worship him like he is God. Same as Caesar back during the Roman empire days.
Linonophobia, the fear of string
and Kakorrhaphiophobia. the fear of failure

I fear craneflies. What's the ancient Greek for craneflies? (otherwise known as Daddy Long Legs)
How about liporhinophobia? (fear of fat lips)

This is a great one though because of what it suggests, its Bogyphobia, the fear of the bogey man, wouldnt that suggest that he actually exists, I think i live next door to him
"They cant make it up there must be at least one person that has had it. and how does it develop "
Ok, this is how it works.
a) I want to be declared unable to work to get free monies
b) I want to be famous by being mentioned anywhere in print
I go to a shrink. And convince said shrink I have a fear of my own penis. And surely at some point during work I will have to pee, unless ofcourse you work for less then 3-4 hrs a day. Anyhow, working a normal workday at some point gonna have to pee. And being male if ya dont want to be a fricken pig and pee everywhere. Ya might have to offer a hand to direct.
So therefore my fear of my penis, would keep me from being able to touch it either for direction or for follow up shakes.
So the Skrink slaps a name on it. PenialTuchapenisphobia or something and you get disability pay to sit at home and Shrink gets his name in a book for discovering a "new" illness.

If you would let them, they would take over the world and evryone would be put on a diet of potatoes with gravy mushed with some vegetable and meatbals. You would not be allowed to speak while eating and every social group in sociaty would have its own school and broadcasting stations (its called verzuiling). Another major influence of dutch politics is called "de appartheid" does that ring any bell.
I think dutchphobia is an absolutaly sane way of dealing with your live.

Ok then why dont you try and make up a phobia and convince a real reputable shrink that you suffer from Chimmychungaphobia, the fear of the word Chimmychunga, I dont know about you but most shrinks are trained to know when someone is lying or when they really suffer from stapleritis the crippling fear of office stationary or whether they are just being a tool

Heres an idea why doesnt everyone get a normal house hold object say a stapler or a ladle or something. and attempt to give someone in there household a phobia of said object, it could be great entertainment on a rainy dear if granny were afraid of the cold tap in the kitchen

Wouldn't that be fear of the state, or originally fear of the city?

:rolleyes: tbh I don't think it's shrinks that make up these phobias, or even the patients... it's more likely to be Ancient Greek students with nothing better to do :p what you have to remember is that scientific english is an agglutinative language, and that just being able to construct an idea in said agglutinative structure is akin to creating a sentence in english - just because the language has given you the ability to create the concept, doesn't mean it has to be true. i.e seeing the suffix "-phobia" attached to something doesn't automatically imply that there are people out there who are actually deathly afraid of it. All it means is that someone with a knowledge of Greek was just making words up for fun. ;)

triskadekaphobia- yup thats right fear of the number 13
I don't get it. I have a friend who is. If her total at the grocery store has 13 in it she buys something else, she checks the serial #s on all her money and won't accept any with 13 in it, she won't even drive down 13th street and has anxiety on mile marker 13. She says it is horribly unlucky. There are days when she can't leave the house :( I have to buy her toilet paper and kleenex for her because she will only go to one grocery store and that stuff is on isle 13.

Papophobia, phobia of the pope. I mean how the hell can you be scared of the damn pope?
Because he looks scary?
http://img163.echo.cx/img163/1170/comparison1cy.jpg
I mean. Just look at his eyes. He'd make a perfect evil mastermind in a movie. What was really freaky at one point of time was when there was a picture of him in front of kids offering him some flowers with that smile of his.
The first thing that popped in my mind was that he was thinking. "Mmm kids. Now how to fillet them for todays BBQ and make their parents serve them to me?"

Oh noes!
I have no problem with the idea of "Politicophobia". Most of them are a pack of lying GOBSHITES with nothing but harm and their own personal gain at our painful expense in mind.
Hang the feckers!
And as for "Levophobia" fine and fair enough, but what's "Fear of things on the right hand side of the body"?
Let's get an even balance here...
