Target announced Wednesday that it will spend millions of dollars to add single-stall bathrooms in its stores, months after it caught heat for its transgender bathroom use policy.
According to USA Today, about 1,400 of the retail giant's 1,800 stores already have single-stall restrooms that anyone can use. It will spent $20 million to add bathrooms to the 400 stores that do not have single-stall options.
its restroom policy allows transgender customers to use the restroom that aligns with their gender identity. Critics blasted the decision, and the store reportedly lost $10 billion after that although company officials denied the loss had anything to do with its bathroom policy.
Target spokesperson Katie Boylan said the company is not changing its policy, but it's "listening" to some of the negative feedback it has received on the issue.

I’m with you.
I hope the scum go broke.
Yep. They wanted to live by their sword, they can die by it.
And they wonder why sales are way down.
I was a weekly, WEEKLY, Target shopper, for years, until this nonsense.
They can build all the bathrooms they want....I’ll NEVER step foot into one of their disgusting stores.
So wait, the nuts get to have free reign over the public rooms but decent folk have to stand on line for a single room if they want to feel safe?
Go ahead Target ... spend your 2o million, after which I’ll be visiting your stores and locking myself in that room in protest. You know, just like the “Sit-Ins” of the 60’s (except now I guess it’s a S#it-In).
Release yourself. OK. I laughed my ass off.
They better use UNION transvestite workers on these restrooms!
[ Targets CEL blames sales drops in Apple, I guess all they must sell at Target is Apple stuff?
I wouldnt know. Ever since they announced their policy on bathroom; my family instituted a No Target policy. We simply refuse to enter the store for any reason. We have a choice on where we shop, and we choose ANYWHERE but Target.
Looking forward to ignoring their bankruptcy sales roo. ]
This Target debacle is a perfect example of the Free Market working PERFECTLY!
TOO LATE, DUMBASS!
That's exactly right. I haven't set foot in a Target store since the credit card account hacking thing a couple years back, and everything I hear them doing since then makes be pretty confident that they won't be around much longer. Really smart executives, they have there.
Affirmative action for transgender plumbing companies?

You would not have been a weekly shopper at Target if you thought that their stores were “disgusting.”
It’s not the stores that are disgusting; it’s the perversion of their senior management.
Not good enough. Transfreaks will still try to use the wrong restroom, with Target’s blessing.
Where in the announcement does it say that any Target store that has this new unisex bathroom, will then prohibit people who “identify” as one sex from using the bathroom for the other sex?
