I’ve heard of saucerphobia and cupophobia but we have been diagonised with plateophobia – The fear of landing on someone’s plate!
saucerphobia : The unnameable fear which overcomes one when a large silent UFO cruises arrogantly overhead/ To be frightened by the huge flying objects.
cupophobia : The unnameable fear which overcomes one when trying new bras…




“Maybe stalking the woods is as vital to the human condition as playing music or putting words to paper. Maybe hunting has as much of a claim on our civilized selves as anything else. After all, the earliest forms of representational art reflect hunters and prey. While the arts were making us spiritually viable, hunting did the heavy lifting of not only keeping us alive, but inspiring us. To abhor hunting is to hate the place from which you came, which is akin to hating yourself in some distant, abstract way.” ― Steven Rinella
But I have huntophobia! The thought of killing is very disturbing to me…
Have a beautiful day!
Posted for BIRD WEEKLY – PHOTO CHALLENGE – HUNTED OR CONSUMED BY HUMANS
stunning shots Rita … I too have huntophobia and Steven’s quote grates, I’ve been veggo most of my life and abhor killing at any level!
Cured my cupophobia by having a double mastectomy when cancer tried to take me! No more bras and no more mammograms, what a relief 🙂

What wonderful shots you have and to capture the water droplets on the Canada Goose is spectacular. I love your take on the phobias. I got this vision of the Aflac duck trying on a bra. LOL! 🙂

I don’t have it on my IPhone. Maybe I just don’t have the right emoji loaded. I’ll look into that. 🙂
