By Wikipedia's own definition the word Phobia is defined as...

"A phobia is a type of anxiety disorder defined by a persistent and excessive fear of an object or situation.[1] The phobia typically results in a rapid onset of fear and is present for more than six months.[1] The affected person goes to great lengths to avoid the situation or object, to a degree greater than the actual danger posed.[1] If the feared object or situation cannot be avoided, the affected person experiences significant distress.[1] With blood or injury phobia, fainting may occur.[1] Agoraphobia is often associated with panic attacks.[6] Usually a person has phobias to a number of objects or situations.[1]"

One can clearly see that the definition given here includes many additional feelings, attitudes and behaviors that are not about fear. All phobias are simply fears. Nothing more. Nothing less. This definition selectively adds to the definition of many other phobias in ways that have nothing to do with what is being feared. This definition is not rooted in any consistent definition. It is completely open-ended and invalid.
