Is it normal to be irrationally afraid of belly buttons?

Nobody is going to take this seriously, but...
I'm terrified of belly buttons. They're the most disgusting things ever. If someone touches mine, I get this crazy burst of anger. If they touch theirs, I puke. My logic is because you used to be attached to your mom by it, and from what I've been told, you ate AND pooped out of it. That's so nasty! I tell people about it and they look at me like I'm nuts. I probably am. Welp, yeah. IIN?

    Yes, it is where the umbilical cord was cut. But I'm sure you've been out of your mom's womb for a long time, and I'm sure it's clean if you shower often. No need to be scared/grossed out by it.

    I don't touch it at all. So it doesn't get cleaned. Haha.

    And to the other dude, it's called 'Is It Normal'. So I was inquiring whether or not anyone else feels this way. Evidently, 50% so far agrees with me.

    I thought "innies" were the only type of belly button (as I have an "inny" and other belly buttons I encountered up until the age of twenty were "innies" as well). I myself am freaked out by "outies." To me they look deformed, and will talk at any moment. Depending on how unappealing they look, I even feel fear that a monster will emerge out of the "outies," very much like that creature from Total Recall. I get you.

    You poop out of your ass on a daily basis now - why not focus on that instead of your poor bellybutton??

    Nooo, I think it's not normal. You have a bit of an issue there, and I think you should get over it. Now judging by your responses to other people's comments, you don't wanna hear that at all, but tough--that's what I've got to say.

    Mine's clean... I'm not scared that anything will come out or anything. Just when people touch it, or get close, It scares the shit outta me... It's hard to explain. But it's gross.

    I always thought it was like a scar left behind after the placenta was removed.

    So do you avoid cleaning it or do you touch it when no one's around?
    Shh, I won't tell.
