Fears of heights, flying, snakes and thunderstorms might be common phobias, but what about the sexual phobias people suffer from?
Welcome to sexual health with Rose. “Laugh” This week for Thursday Thirteen I’m going to share with my readership thirteen sexual phobias . Please note that this Thursday Thirteen blog post contains topics of a mature nature and may not be suitable for younger viewers.

Sexual Phobias
Erotophobia is the fear of sexual love or sexual questions.
Eurotophobia is the fear of female genitalia.
Genophobia is the fear of sex.
Malaxophobia is the fear of love play.
Medomalacuphobia is the fear of losing an erection.
Medorthophobia- is the fear of an erect penis.
Oneirogmophobia is the fear of wet dreams.
Paraphobia is the fear of sexual perversion.
Parthenophobia is the fear of virgins.
Ithyphallophobia is a morbid fear of seeing, thinking about or having an erect penis.
Coitophobia is the fear of sexual intercourse.
Philemaphobia or Philematophobia is the fear of kiss.
Gymnophobia is the morbid phobia of being nude.
Don’t worry! I’m not going to ask you if you have any of these phobias.

Hello Rose: Thanks for stopping by – my tongue was tripping over how to pronounce these – and many of these (if not all) have Greek roots.

I so want to remember a few of these, but I have a definite problem with being able to say them correctly. I may to do my own phonetic spelling.
Thanks for sharing, never knew they existed.

“Philemaphobia or Philematophobia is the fear of kiss.”

OK! So who has time to think up these crazy names? “Can’t get it up” is not enough?
What man has this: Parthenophobia. Seriously.
You are always informative

Wow, I’ve never heard of these before. I don’t think I have any of them though, so that’s good.
Happy TT and thanks for visiting my list!

I could see why some would fear a few of them! Great list, as usual, just don’t test us later on the names that go with them (I meant the words, not names of people that have them.)
