There's such a thing as a
fear of buttons.
Those
who suffer from koumpounophobia will do their best to avoid anything and
everything to do with buttons—looking at them, touching them, wearing clothing
affixed with them, even thinking about them. If you suffer from this
affliction, you're repulsed by buttons of every shape, size, color, and
material. Anecdotal evidence, according to The Guardian,
suggests that one in every 75,000 people lives with this phobia. But only
one case study (from 2002) has ever been done.
