Fear of laughter? Fear of oneβs own knees/the act of kneeling? Fear of taste? Fear of knowledge? :):):) I pray for all the sufferers of these. Laughter is one of the most joyful noises there is, to me. What would I do if I couldn’t kneel to pray. Taste, oh my, I love food hehehe. I am not the brightest candle on the cake but I do love to learn things.

I absolutely agree with you, Margaret, especially where it concerns kneeling to pray. And I love learning new things as well!

At the moment, I can’t put a word to it, but I know what you mean. It’s beautifully sacred.

I have a feeling there are plenty of people who suffer from gamophobia. Marriage can be a big commitment, and I think people who have had to watch other people suffer from failed marriages can make them scared of failing at it as well.
My favorite one from the list was gephyrophobia. A fear of crossing bridges really ignites my imagination. I feel like there’s a story in that one. π

I absolutely agree with you for that is the same reasoning that I’ve come to concerning marriages. There is definitely a story in that one, Mandie! Are you going to write it for us? π

I should. It’s been milling around in my brain since I read this post. I think one day the right idea will grow from it.
