520    In this expose of how young girls are sexualized in 
       today's media, the author uses examples from popular TV 
       shows, magazines, movies, and Web sites to show for the 
       first time all the ways in which sexuality is defined in 
       media--often in ways detrimental to girls' healthy 
       development--as well as effective and progressive 
       strategies for resisting the violations and repressions 
       that render girls sexually subordinate.
