		<description>Now see...That was more of a definition using etymology...few people know that word - but now they do!

 :smile: 

That woman must have had SOME freaky or frightening experience in her past...why can&#039;t her therapist just ask about that and see what they might find, rather than frightening her by showing her pictures that upset her as a first step?  :???:</description>

		<description>Whitehawk: Thanks for the story   :wink: 
Interesting comparison  :mrgreen: Actually, some boys and men have a fear of beautiful women, or women in general. It&#039;s called venustraphobia or caligynephobia. 

Not that women are clown-like, but the whole fear of being rejected, 
--what am I going to do, 
--I&#039;ll sound stupid
--she&#039;ll never like me
--pounding heart 
--mind going blank 
phenomena that some guys have is enough to stand in the way of relationships and causes some men to be doormats. 

Fortunately, people can get over phobias  easy to live full lives...WITHOUT psychotropic meds  :smile:</description>
