It's just like many people (like me) fear spiders and cockroaches and other creepy-crawlies. I know they won't hurt me, but I still freak out when I see them.
I guess, you just have the same thing with butterflies. they're insects too and I can see how, in a way, they can be as scary as other insects are. Even though I personally like them.
I think it's just the way storybooks and movies portray insects that make us scared of certain ones and not others. Like spiders are usually gross and evil and butterflies and ladybugs are good and pretty. That is why most people like them. But I don't think not liking them would be abnormal.
Is it normal that I'm literally terrified of butterflies???
