People who are afraid of heights ...I beg to differ. People who are afraid of heights or water are only afraid when confronted with heights and water. If you're only afraid of grasshoppers when confronted with one, that's exactly the same as any other phobia.Yahoobuckaroo's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17621308885893253608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118802602205940037.post-18349699720892287142018-01-02T20:42:49.283-06:002018-01-02T20:42:49.283-06:00do you see how that is not the same thing?

Or do you go around twenty four hours a day in a panic thinking a clown or grasshopper is going to show up> That would be a phobia. Nothing to compare that to.<br />unnamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11690021561109178407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118802602205940037.post-41435513578255913842015-01-13T09:44:48.717-06:002015-01-13T09:44:48.717-06:00Did you ever notice that there were no scary stori...Did you ever notice that there were no scary stories about clowns prior to the 1970s (at least none I've ever come across), yet for some strange reason, many of us who were kids in the 60s were afraid of them and had nightmares about them? I thought an evil clown lived under my bed as a child. Why would I think such a thing? They didn't scare me after grade school, but I marvel that any of us were ever afraid of them to begin with since there was nothing in the media that would generate that fear to the best of my knowledge.Yahoobuckaroo's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17621308885893253608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118802602205940037.post-21587400109201739652015-01-13T05:19:30.711-06:002015-01-13T05:19:30.711-06:00Don't feel bad, I am sort of afraid of grass h...Don't feel bad, I am sort of afraid of grass hoppers.
