Unforgivably, this site entirely overlooks triskaidekaphobia, or the fear of the number thirteen, which surely has to be very high on anyone's list of the most common phobias. On the other hand, the front page does claim to list the "top 13 phobias" but if you count them, there are only eleven. My conclusion is that the author of the site is, himself, not only a triskaidekaphobic and therefore unable to include all thirteen top phobias on the list, but is such a severe case that even the mention of triskaidekaphobia makes him triskaidekaphobic.
And honestly, is 'fear of chickens' really the top phobia?
I would suggest looking around for better sources than this, one of which is The Phobia List, at www.phobialist.com.
Mildly entertaining website dedicated to listing and defining every phobia there is known to man. My personal favorite is Coulrophobia -fear of clowns. Been going through a few of these and I think my fear is Peladophobia-which is the fear of bald people. Ok, maybe I'm not pela... uh. Pedro... um... whatever, but at least if I see someone freaking out while they are staring at a bald person's big melon, I can help them and diagnose them right there on the spot and give them some sort of sense of comfort.
I could walk up and say to him" hey buddy, it's alright that you're afraid of the back of this guys bald head, you see, because you have a condition called Pedaphelia. You'll be just fine"
