People have some weird Philias here’s 10 odd ones

A Philia is an ancient Greek term often translated as friendship or affection but, it can be more than just that, like an obsessive love. We have written about a lot here before but thought we would dig deeper into them here

They are the complete opposite, of a fear of something, such as a phobia. Its like a person is under a spell these philia’s are known as a “phile” such as bibliophile or zoophile. If you wanna use them as an adjective they can be turned using “philic” like these used bibliophilic or zoophilic.

So you know the background and how to write and speak about them and if you have read any post here you will know some people have some weird philias. Here’s a good list of some of the oddest, not wrong just outside the norm and no they are not all sexual, but that said I am sure they have been used in some form of sexual act.

Arachibutyrophilia

Clack, clack…know that sensation when peanut butter sticks in your mouth? If it gives you pleasure beyond the taste, perhaps you’re an arachibutyrophile.

Didaskaleinophilia

Have you ever had that dream that you’re in school, naked? If the best part of that dream is that you’re in school, perhaps this is your philia. Didaskaleinophiles are obsessed with school. The uniforms, the learning, the wedgies, simply heaven.

Eptroctophilia

Some people are possessed by paraphilias, a philia that causes sexual arousal. Eptroctophiles are aroused by flatulence…just let that hang there for a while.

Forniphilia

Another paraphilia, this one could have you scanning the room for suspicious-looking lamps or inspecting what you’re sitting on. Forniphiles are obsessed with the idea of becoming human furniture and derive pleasure from being ‘inanimate.’

Allodoxaphilia

Perhaps you know someone that will always hold an opinion contrary to your own, regardless of the topic. If you’re still friends with them despite this irritating habit, you could well be an Allodoxaphile, meaning you are obsessed with and actively seek out alternative or contradictory opinions.

Gynotikolobomassophilia

Not a Greek restaurant, although it does involve nibbling. These philes are obsessed with having a nibble on female ear lobes, a condition apparently common enough to require a label.

Nebulophilia

Mostly found in Industrial London, modern-day China and period crime novels. These philes are hard to spot, for they are obsessed with fog and being engulfed in its milky embrace.

Pupaphilia

Not love of small dogs. Although they also feature as the demonically possessed in many horror film, puppets are the object of this philia’s desires.

Sesquipedalophilia

Say that word again, slowly. Sounds good, doesn’t it? Try dropping it into a sentence and see if you get anybody’s number. You could well catch yourself a sesquipedalophile, since they are obsessed with long words.

Siderodromophilia

I choo choo choose you. The love of riding trains, perhaps because of those good vibrations, who knows?

Novercaphilia

Surely this is the strangest one of them all, it goes against nature. These philes are obsessed or overly affectionate towards…stepmothers. And based on this link of 185986 porn clips tagged as stepmother I am sure there are lots of people that are hiding it.

Nomophilia

Finally, the most common on the list. Perhaps you’ve possessed with this philia yourself, right now. A nomophile is obsessed with mobiles phones.
