It suggests that he suffered from "specific phobia".

A specific phobia is any sort of uneasiness issue or disorder that adds up to an absurd or silly dread identified with introduction to particular items or circumstances. Therefore, the influenced individual has a tendency to maintain a strategic distance from contact with the items or circumstances and, in serious cases, any mention or portrayal of them.
