Best Answer
  • The phobia (fear) of being touched by men is 'androphobia.' Fear on men can be caused from a trauma stemming anywhere from an individual's childhood to a few years back. It causes a great deal of stress for the sufferer and they should seek psychological counseling to get to the root of the problem.
