Is there any way to prove that fear actually exists? Shouldn't we consider that there is no real basis for this idea? <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Climenole|Climenole]] ([[User talk:Climenole|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Climenole|contribs]]) 09:10, 4 October 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:Well, fear actually exits, e.g., children, children feel fear, but not explicitly, despite of you easily detecting fear in someone, after all, are feelings, and varies from person-to-person.
:So the idea of fear can be eradicated or be generalized in some way, because it is an extremely sensible subject, too sensible for pisicology.
:The fear it's a feeling that somehow occurs to warn you of danger, or when you feel yourself when danger, as the so-called "phobias".
:Example: Claustrophobia is fear of closed, limited spaces, like elevators, a lot of people are afraid of elevators, because they think it is dangerous. WK:CLAUSTROPHOBIA.
:In other words, the consensus, as expected, is that fear does exist and it is essential to study it. [[Special:Contributions/177.105.90.10|177.105.90.10]] ([[User talk:177.105.90.10|talk]]) 15:22, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

IS this necessary to put on the article of fear? I sense indirect slander instead of contributing to the article. A more general picture should be used instead or none at all. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Transkar|Transkar]] ([[User talk:Transkar|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Transkar|contribs]]) 08:35, 10 April 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
That picture is disgraceful and should be removed- what is wrong with you people? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/65.111.94.208|65.111.94.208]] ([[User talk:65.111.94.208|talk]]) 16:53, 16 May 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
This picture violates the rule of representing information fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias. Its use is making an statement and showing a disproportionate bias against the US army when there are much better examples to show, in general, as on military intimidation all around the world, specially by unofficial militias.

== Smell, olfactory, odor, communication of fear? ==
Serious question! Some evidence, at least, suggests that animals and humans emit some particular chemical when frightened, and then other ones of the same type can detect it and smell it. Some of the evidence can easily be shown to lie in the realm of fiction. I am absolutely not an expert on any of the particular evidence, but I am pretty sure this might be a very important part of the article that is utterly missing, apparently.

:It is a very good question, but unfortunately I don't know the first thing about this. I have also asked your question on [[Talk:Animal_communication#Fear_.2F_Edit_request|Talk:Animal communication]]. Let us hope some editor shows up who knows more about this. [[User:Lova_Falk|<
:: [[User:Thinkadoodle|Thinkadoodle]], I've added a section on alarm pheromones (fearomones -:), which might interest you, after I saw your post and reflected on the common knowledge of "fear is contagious". Absolutely no fiction, ancient heavy hardwired stuff that connects us with all that lives.--[[User:Wuerzele|Wuerzele]] ([[User talk:Wuerzele|talk]]) 18:15, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
