An abnormal, irrational and persistent fear of women. Sufferers
experience undue anxiety even though they realize they face no threat.
F ear of women is termed "gynephobia," a word derived from the Greek "gyne" (woman)
and "phobos" (fear). Alternate spelling: "gynaephobia." The prefix "gyne-" (or gyn-,
gyno-, gynec-, gyneco-, gynaec-, or gynaeco-) enters into a number of biomedical
terms such as, for examples, gynecology, gynecomastia (breast development in a male),
and a gynecoid pelvis (a pelvis shaped like a woman's).
Terms pertinent to gynecophobia include: androphobia, an abnormal and persistent
fear of men; and pedophobia, an abnormal and persistent fear of children and babies.
