I am terrified of ketchup. I can't be with someone eating it, and for example if someone has a plate with chips on it and they put ketchup on the plate, i cant eat any of the chips, even if they haven't touched it. If people like smother food with it I can't look. I cried in a cafe today because my friend Holden put ketchup ALL over a plate and put it in front of me, and i couldn't get away or not look at it, everyone thought I was mad.

So, do you have any weird phobias? Or do you know anyone with any?

Butter.

I haven't touched it since I was 9 years old, and I never will :blush:

Seeing people spread it onto nice bread makes me feel really odd... and then when they eat it... :conf:

Cotton or paper on my teeth. It's an actual physical phobia too (meaning when faced with the thought or the actual phobia I have a physical reaction... retching, sweats etc).

Blades, sharp knifes, razors etc basically anything that can draw blood which is interesting ...

I don't have a problem with blood, I don't have a problem looking at them listed above but if I ever have to use one it does get a little weird

Mild phobia ...

I'm with pinkmichk on the cotton wool thing, and cardboard cartons you get from Tesco are weird as well

Turbans are worn mainly by Sikhs. Why do you link Sikhs with airports?

:| I'm not racist but usually Muslims are related to terrorism not people who wear turbans (Sikhs, Hindus). Still doesn't mean every Muslim wants to be a terrorist or is.

OMG i just re-read what i said and yeh i said it in a really ad way. What i meant was that in the airport the people who wear the headthings scare me. and i also meant that its normally people from a darker skin coloured country that wear them. I dont think i have seen a white person wear one?? I am seriously not meaning it in a bad way but do you get me now?
and seriously i am so sorry for any misunderstanding i have caused.

How can someones skin colour actually scare someone? It's literally just a colour. It doesn't determine anything about that person, and certainly doesn't make them more dangerous, or belonging to a religion. It's just a colour.

Similarly, turbans mainly belong to Sikh or Hindu. So its obviously not the religion connotations that scare you, but infact, just their skin colour exclusively.

If it's just what they wear, then why link it to terrorism?

Omg. Sorry I know I said I wouldn't post in here again for fear of accidentally pushing you into sounding racist, but this is just sick.

Muslims are not "taught" anything scary. Islam is a religion of PEACE!

My best friend is a Muslim and he would not hurt anybody. He has been taught respect and love for others. It's people like you who judge him for something he is not, and make the life of an innocent person hell.

Please, before you get misconstrued and anti-Islam thoughts - at least educate yourself before you throw around ignorant judgements.

Exactly, Muslims commit terrorism not because of Islam beliefs but them misconstruding the religion or teachings of Allah or whatever (I think thats right :|) Or simply wrongly stixking up for what they belive in.

Exactly.

Christian's have these people as well. Anyone remember that documentary on Westboro Baptist Church?

All religions have it. They just use religion as a medium for putting across their own fundamental views. This is not Islam at all.

The media does not portray that every Muslim wants to commit terroism or that all terroists are non-white. You can't just blame it on the media or whatever.

By reading things. Using the internet.

The media has never once said that Islam teaches wrongdoing. You just took that message yourself when you see things happening.

Surely you must have a Muslim friend, or someone you know that is Muslim?

Just so I can raise the point, going beyond this totally racism thing you are all saying, if you had been slightly intelligent and not so ignorant you would of discovered that every 'Terrorist' that will ever bomb will be completely hairless. Its part of their religion, so if you see a man with a turban and a huge beard. Think twice... they don't plan on doing anything unless they are a psycho, and they have just as much chance as being a psycho than a white man.

Its even worse at an airport and the worst thing of all is when your pon the plane. Im not being racist or anything but they just scare me x

I'm the same. Its going to sound really racist but when I see an Asian person with a rucksack when I'm out I think they've got a bomb or something. Still, only the media to blame I suppose ...

Omg same lol. And this is gunna sound awful but sometimes its the skin colour that scares me. ( ONly if there wearing xomething like different ).

Its horrible i know but most of my friends agree but then again some people think i am mean....

I really dont mean it in a bad way tbh x

Wow, that was pretty out there racism.

Its not- blame the media for putting those images in our heads. I can't help it if I'm paranoid. I know they won't do anything but its a huge what if. Every time something like that happens, its immediately linked to Asians/Muslims etc even if its not them and the media make a huge deal out of it. If they didn't, then would people be that bothered?

I admit I do get afraid when I see a man with a turban especially at an airport.

But I have a phobia of zips. I hate the sound they make. When people zip up their pencilcases it just goes through me!

Turbans aren't even worn in Islam :|
