Every so often I come across a new obsession with a strange name and sometimes stranger definition. The following are some of the lesser known philes.
algophilia-pain
amathophilia-dust
bufonophilia-toads (makes me think of buffons)
cacophilia-ugliness
chiraptophilia-being touched (Howie Mandel has this phobia)
dinophilia-dizzness (my first thought was Dino Flintstone)
gamophilia-marriage (Liz Taylor had this!)
kopophilia-fatigue (why would anyone love fatigue?)
neophilia-anything new (lots of that going around)
phengophilia-daylight or sunshine (count me in!)
To change any love or obsession into a fear just change to suffix to phobia.
