Phobias, another insane rant

Something that fascinates me is phobias, not the fears as such but the catalogue of what phobias there are. I decided to share some of the most bizarre (in my opinion anyway and that’s what counts) here for whoever is bothering to read my rantings!!

These relate to places/countries – I’m not so sure if they are not just reason to be racist though!

Anglophobia- Fear of England, English culture, etc.
Bolshephobia- Fear of Bolsheviks.
Dutchphobia- Fear of the Dutch.
Francophobia- Fear of France, French culture. (Gallophobia, Galiophobia)
Germanophobia- Fear of Germany, German culture, etc.
Japanophobia- Fear of Japanese.
Judeophobia- Fear of Jews.
Russophobia- Fear of Russians.
Sinophobia- Fear of Chinese, Chinese culture.

And a few other gems:

Alliumphobia- Fear of garlic. (if you suffer this you are probably a vampire)
