Is it normal to be afraid of slugs?

Ever since I was a kid, I've had a weird fear of slugs. Just the other night I brought in a gym bag that I accidentally left outside. I set it down in my room and a couple minutes later I got startled and grossed out by a slug, about an inch long, that had crawled off the bag. It gives me the creeps knowing that I even picked up the bag to bring it inside. Is this normal?

    I was afraid of many tiny lifeforms. The past 5 months I've been working in environment protection. I am now out in meadows, woods and swamps all day. I've lost most of my fears within a short time. I've held so many bugs, spiders, frogs, newts, worms, snails and slugs im my hands and I actually find them kind of cute now.

    I like to touch them and play with them in my hands. Gooey mess but worth it. Slugs are better to play with then snails.

    Slugs & snails: Rat Lung Worm,It will kill you.
    slugs & snails eat the droppings and they end up on
    our food,lettuce,tomato,fruits,vegies.Wash well.

    ( Watch babies/toddlers outdoors.)

    Nope, just douse those bad boys in salt and watch them die of dehydration.

          Eastern Giant African Land Snail, they're actually fairly commonly available as pets, I got mine off someone who'd accidentally bred theirs. However I think they're banned in some countries (those where they'd survive in the wild) because they can become pests.
