" A phobia is an overwhelming, and debilitating fear of an object, place, situation, feeling or animal. Phobias are more pronounced than fears. They develop when a person has an exaggerated, or unrealistic sense of danger about a situation or object" ( NHS definition, not mine)
Most inaccurate , and overused noun in the current lexicon used by the professionally offended.
I'm sure you're more open minded than that though.
