Girls Growing up too Fast -- good article

Here's an interesting article (if interesting means ready to send my 4 year old to a convent) about how "hot" and "sexy" are being pushed on younger and younger girls through influences in the media, marketing, and other areas.

I wonder how to get my kids to have heroes outside of the media... in grade school, mine were Lee Hamilton (my congressman in Indiana) and Beth Carlson (a swimmer who could swim 100 yd Fly in under a minute). Thanks for the tip.
