Katsophobia(noun)
Pronunciation: /ˌkæt.səˈfoʊ.
bi.ə/
A profound and irrational
fear or aversion toward women, often so intense that it leads observers to question the
individual's own gender identity or expression. While not officially recognized in clinical psychology, katsophobia is used colloquially to describe extreme discomfort or avoidance of women in social, professional, or personal contexts.
His consistent refusal to engage with any
woman in conversation led some to
suspect he was suffering from a severe
case of katsophobia.
