Girls are terrified of spiders, never managed to figure out if it's some sociatally enforced pantomime that they indulge in or if they are actually that pathetic...but it's certainly a thing.

I expect if I was that worried by something I would think that would make a kick ass baddie in a game...can't get you can it? But what would I know I'm sane?

Oh by the way I'm from a country with no dangerous spiders...if you live in Australia then you have every right to be scared of spiders.

Why is it pathetic to be afraid of spiders?

Because they pose no threat...what do you think fear is for?
