Androphobia is an anxiety condition that is characterized by a fear of men. This condition is not limited to women. Men can also suffer from this irrational fear. People who suffer from androphobia commonly engage in elaborate and extreme measures to avoid men. This condition can have a negative impact on various aspects of life, such as employment and romantic involvement.
A person with this condition is likely to be overcome with fear or to experience terror when she is put into a situation that involves a male’s presence. This can be true even when she knows there is no threat to her safety. There are numerous symptoms that can indicate the existence of this condition. These include rapid heartbeat, trembling, and shortness of breath. A sufferer’s mouth can become dry and she could also have an impulse to vomit.
It is believed that many people who suffer from androphobia do so because of a traumatic incident. The person who suffers from this condition may not have been a direct victim in the event that caused her to develop the problem. For example, one woman may have witnessed another being physically or sexually abused, and thereafter developed this fear. This condition is not always the result of a single event. Sometimes it develops over a span of time (Felicia Dye)
