Fetishize for Dummies

Hey there! So, the word "fetishize" is a little bit of a tricky one, but I'll do my best to explain it in a way that makes sense to you. When we say someone "fetishizes" something, it means they have a really strong and sometimes obsessive interest or attraction to that thing. It's like when you really, really love something and it becomes the most important thing to you.

For example, let's say you really, really love unicorns. You have unicorn posters on your wall, unicorn toys on your shelf, and you love everything unicorn-related. You might say that you "fetishize" unicorns because you're so obsessed with them. It's like they hold a special and almost magical place in your heart.

Another way to think about it is like when someone puts a lot of importance on certain qualities or features of something, like a person's appearance or a particular object. They might focus so much on those things that it becomes almost like an obsession. So, when we say someone "fetishizes" something, it's like they're really, really, really into it in a way that might be a little bit extreme or intense.

I hope that helps you understand what "fetishize" means. It's all about having a really intense and sometimes exaggerated love or interest in something. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask! I'm here to help.
