contreltofobia
  55

In several texts - still academic - it appears as the "unfounded fear of rape" . The problem is the etymology; because if it is a real phobia (and not one of the many spawns that circulate around with the suffix -phobia), the most logical thing is that it has a conformation in Greek, as an agraphobia that is a pathological fear of being sexually abused. But it turns out that contreltatio , onis (" touching , handling ") is Latin , and the few times they are mixed in phobias , filias or lagnias is to make a difference of interpretation avoiding an unnecessary homonymy ( p . e.g. somnophilia and hypnophilia), or because it was invented by a tinkerer and then we must avoid its use. See also opaque, canisphobia, monophobia, russophobia (better, russophobic).
