summary: 
Pole-dancing kits for girls and beauty pageants for six-year-olds are part of a trend towards the increasing sexualization of young girls, according to author Gigi Durham.

Gigi Durham is the author of a new book called The Lolita Effect. In the book, she examines the effects of a corporate media culture that sexualizes young girls. She argues that the result is distortion of their self-identity and erosion of their self-respect.
