I used to have arachnophobia, but I decided phobias are dumb. I wish I could get over my pube phobia, whatever that is called. Anyway, I don't even kill spiders now. The jumper ones that live on walls and ceilings are actually fun to play with. I'm pretty sure there's something going on behind those eyes.

Most people call that being normal. There is a natural disdain for interacting with a normally unhygienic part of the body, amplified by modern social requisites to create a clothed region encapsulating the heat and promoting sweat and bacterial growth. When the behavior becomes irrational to the point of behavior modifying overall personal comfort or social interaction, then you can perhaps address a bit of mysophobia (aka a germophobe)
No different than not shaking hands with a person who does not wash their hands after pooping.Textually Active

The laser is only the size of a pencil eraser. It takes some time. There are levels as well. To get good results, one must be able to take it to level 5.
