vanishedone commented on the word fetiphobia
It appears from http://www.informedconsent.co.uk/boards/activism/163563/1/#1463477 that the established meaning is 'the irrational fear that the acknowlegement of the fundamental right to life for prenatal children must somehow diminish the nature or standing of women in society', but there is an attempt to use it to denote irrational fear of unconventional sexual proclivities (hence the derivation from fetish).
