My wife’s arachnophobic, and apparently the way their legs move has a lot to do with it. Jumping spiders, with their stubby little legs, don’t creep her out like other spiders do.
Yeah, that’s what I’ve heard. I guess I wasn’t born with that fear because I’ve always gravitated towards creepy crawlies ever since I was a little girl. My mom also encouraged my toddler love of bugs, she didn’t let her own fears show because she saw how interested I was in them and didn’t want to hold me back. I know the reason, I just don’t understand the reason for the fear/discomfort if that makes sense.
And jumping spiders are adorable little things 🥰
On a side note, Arachnophobia is one of my favorite movies and I always root for the spiders 🤣
