Erotizing

/ˈɛrətaɪzɪŋ/ verb

Definition

Present participle of erotize; the process of making something erotic or giving it sexual appeal.

Etymology

From erotize + -ing suffix (present participle form).

Kelly Says

Erotizing is the continuous action of making things sexual—and it's happening constantly in media, fashion, and advertising, which is why we're conditioned to see desire and attraction in contexts our great-grandparents would never have considered sexual.
