Did everyone get molested by a clown at a young age? I don't find them scary in the slightest, they are great, every birthday party I went to with a clown was really fun. Now snakes on the other hand, kill 'em with fire.
And I used to find Garter snakes and play with them as a child, I have no problem with them.
By your logic, were you molested by snakes? Perhaps a trouser snake? Everyone has fears, your is snakes, some of us is clowns.
