The scientific name for this phobia is koumpounophobia. Please add that I don't know if I've spelt it right; there are many differnt spellings going around, I...
So, who studied Ancient Greek? Can anyone translate the "koumpoun" part? I don't think the Ancient Greeks had buttons so it seems unlikely that the etymology...

Yes! I can completely relate to this. There was a guy I worked with who only worn plain T-shirts to work, but when I went out with him he worn a shirt with...
i've told guys the truth before and they've often found it endearing- in fact some have even cut buttons off thier shirts for me! ... From: bontgirl2003...
My pet hate is duvet covers, pillows and cushions with buttons on. EEEuuuwww! Usually they just have button fastenings but I walked into a department store...

Hi all, I'm new here, I'm from the US (I notice most of you are from the UK). I can't tell if this group is still active but I'll introduce myself anyway :) ...
