Lolita pornography, also known as "lollipop", is a type of pornography in which features pubescent models who are or only appear to be under the legal age to appear in porn. While the term lolita pornography can describe child pornography involving underage pubescent girls, in the porn industry, the term lolita porn describes porn featuring barely-legal models whom the producers claim to have been of legal age to appear in pornography (18 years or older in most countries) when photographed. Nevertheless, even completely legal Lolita pornography tends to encounter social opposition in much of the western world. The genre's name comes from the Vladimir Nabokov novel Lolita, in which a much older man becomes sexually obsessed with the pubescent title character. Lolita pornography often differs from teen pornography in that while teen pornography will usually focuses on common themes that emphasize the performers' youth and inexperience, commercial lolita pornography tends to try and accentuate their "young girl" appearance in a number of ways, including:

  • shaving their pubic hair
  • childish hairstyles such as pigtails
  • posing with teddy bears, dolls or other toys
  • wearing clothes typically associated with young girls, such as a schoolgirl uniform and undergarments decorated with cartoon characters
  • posing on sets intended to evoke a girlish feel, such as a "childish" or "teenagerish" bedroom, classroom, girls' locker room or shower, school gym or bathroom (evoking children's bathtime routine)
  • childish mannerisms such as twisting their hair, chewing on their fingernails or eating candy (especially sucking on hard candy, evoking fellatio)

Sometimes lolita pornography is classified in the teen pornography genre or as a sub-genre of teen pornography.

In cultures with a weaker taboo against ephebophilia, however, it is often commonplace, most notably in Japan, where actresses who take part in it are usually described as kogals or schoolgirls, and where even in mainstream pornography adult actresses often do their best to seem childish.

Nana is a novel by the French naturalist author Emile Zola. Completed in 1880, Nana is the ninth installment in the 20-volume Les Rougon-Macquart series, which was to tell "The Natural and Social History of a Family under the Second Empire" (Becker 96).

A year before he started to write Nana, Zola didn't know anything yet about the Variétés. It was Ludovic Halévy who invited him to see an operetta with him on February 15, 1878, took him backstage, and told him innumerable stories about the amorous life of the star (Anna Judic whose ménage à trois would become the model for Rose Mignon, her husband, and Fauchery) and also about famous cocottes such as Blanche d'Antigny, Anna Deslions, Delphine de Lizy, and Hortense Schneider, an amalgam of which was to serve the writer as the basis for his principal character.

Nana tells the story of Anna Coupeau's rise from streetwalker to high-class cocotte during the last three years of the French Second Empire. Nana first appears in the end of L'Assommoir (1877), another of Zola's Rougon-Macquart series, in which she is portrayed as the daughter of an abusive drunk; in the end, she is living in the streets and just beginning a life of prostitution.
