Explanation

Caligynephobia is an abnormal and persistent fear of beautiful women. The term comes from Greek roots: 'caly' meaning beautiful and 'gyné' meaning women. Option A refers to Astraphobia/Brontophobia, B to Neophobia, and C to Bufonophobia.

AI explanation

Caligynephobia derives from Greek roots meaning 'beautiful' (kallos) and 'woman' (gyne), so it names the fear of beautiful women. The other listed fears (thunder, novelty, toads) correspond to different, unrelated phobia names.
