It's funny but its acutally a really good idea.Alot of people have some serious phobias of odd things. However odd they are, their trying to sort themselves out. The market might be slim but that's still cool.

Quote:
If the names of phobias can be found online, the people who actually suffer from at least one of them at some point in their life ? about 50 million in the U.S. by some estimates ? are everywhere. They may be like "Beth," a pseudonym, a middle school student in Boston whose hemophobia, or fear of blood, was so severe that even a figure of speech like "cut it out" could make her faint. Or they may be like "Jean," 38, an executive assistant in New Jersey who is so terrified of balloons that just walking into a birthday party can make her break out in a sweat.
And over 3 million people suffer from Xanthophobia the fear of the color yellow or the word 'yellow'. Statistical speaking THIS scared the shit out of atleast one GFY'er.
