Etymology
Sexualization starts with sexual, from 'sex', and adds -ize meaning 'to make' and -ation meaning 'the act'. So sexualization is the act of making someone or something seem sexual or of focusing attention on sexual traits, which is why people worry about the sexualization of children in media.
