  1. angoraphobia - n. fear of soft, fuzzy sweaters (agoraphobic. - adj.)

    Usage examples:

    Sheila, who had severe but as yet undiagnosed angoraphobia, shrieked in
    terror upon opening a Christmas present from her grandmother. Harold, a
    recently recovered agoraphobic (Harold had sought treatment when, as a
    teenager in the 50s, he found himself unable to be around teenaged girls
    and thus unable to go out on dates) having gone through a lengthy course
    of aversion therapy, leapt into the fray, grabbed the accursed soft,
    fuzzy sweater, and flung it into the fireplace.

    Uh, I made this word up! I did not steal it from
    Answers.com! If they have the same word it is pure
    coincidence!! Maybe they travelled into the future
    and stole it from me!!!
