The process by which fields gradually becoming dominated by men gain in perceived value, to the point where it's often forgotten that they were originally dominated by women (e.g. computers, Star Trek fandom); and by which fields gradually becoming dominated by women lose perceived value, to the point where it's often forgotten that they were originally dominated by men (e.g. nursing, secretarial work).

Woman 1: Damn, the Mentrification of Star Trek really hit hard huh?
