Phobia of clowns

Phobia of clowns
Does anyone have a phobia of clowns?
How would you react if we dressed you as a clown and then held a mirror in front of you?
Always been interested in that specifically for some reason, maybe because i'm studying phobias as part of my psychology course.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

Not sure if you are joking or not but just in case:
Phobias have got nothing to do with sex or sexuality. Its nothing to do with being a scaredy cat

Phobias are irrational. Nothing irrational about fear of big black disease-carrying rats, especially for a chick.

Be careful if someone offers to sell you a poodle for cheap. Could be a big black sewer rat with a perm.

It becomes a phobia when you have never seen one in real life and they haunt your nightmares.

Well... phobias can be rational too, phobia of knives, cars, snakes etc. They are afraid of them for obvious reasons
