Word origin
The word 'exclusiveness' originates from the term 'exclusive', which has been used since the mid-17th century to refer to things that are limited to a select group. Over time, 'exclusiveness' has come to encompass the idea of being exclusive or restricted to a particular group, whether in relationships, brands, or other contexts. The concept of exclusiveness has been both praised for creating a sense of prestige and criticized for fostering elitism and exclusion.
