devalorized
Stripped of value
Devalorized means stripped of value or worth.
The term appears in academic and critical theory contexts, where it describes how something—labor, culture, identity—has been systematically diminished in perceived value: Women's domestic work has been historically devalorized.
The word carries connotations of imposed rather than inherent worthlessness.
