Verb CEFR B2

Definitions

Non-Oxford British English standard spelling of fetishize.

UK, alt-of, nonstandard

Examples

“"First it argues that becoming with the outside does not fetishise minoritarians, such as woman or animal."”
“In order to grant the rich these pleasures, the social contract is reconfigured. […] The public realm is privatised, the regulations restraining the ultra–wealthy and the companies they control are abandoned, and Edwardian levels of inequality are almost fetishised.”
“We’d have more time to campaign for a new working culture that respects love, family and friendship instead of fetishising “hard work”. And most importantly of all we could build an economy that enables people to flourish, instead of one that is entirely fixated on growth.”
“Instead, we so often say “yes” to favours, requests and unrealistic parenting expectations because we fear being accused of being rude, mean or – shock horror – selfish (one of the worst things you can call a woman in our culture that fetishises female self-sacrifice).”
