In an attempt to calm the anger of the more than 1.2 million consumers who have pledged to boycott the store, the CEO announced the stores plans to implement family bathrooms in all of its stores for people who may not feel comfortable in the traditional stall-by-stall bathrooms.
Were committed over the next few months to make sure every one of our stores has that option, because we want to make sure that our guests be welcomed in our stores, he explained. But if theres a question of safety, I can tell you and others, our focus on safety is unwavering, and we want to make sure we provide a welcoming environment for all our guests, one thats safe, one thats comfortable.
However, Cornell did not mention any plans to return to single-sex changing rooms, which is one of the major reasons families have strayed away from the company.
No one wants to send their 13-year-old daughter in to try on clothes in a changing room where a man who claims he is a woman is waiting to take advantage of the situation.
But Target cant easily add family changing rooms, as it would take up valuable space in their stores, and it cant go back to single-sex changing rooms without angering the progressives who pushed for this new policy in the first place.
Cornell said the company has faced tough feedback which may be the understatement of the year so far.

I guess they’ll just have to rely on the deviate business.
There are 10,000 lawyers waiting for this multi billion dollar law suit. It will match the tobacco litigation. There are people planning a set up as we speak. This is a GOLD MINE!!
I made no such assumption...
Yes— I give you credit. But the stores will close after only one!! If it is a child rape — OMG!!
Walmarts all doing very well. Targets came in with a lot of whoopla. They NEVER got busy (maybe opening week, with curious shoppers).
I went in once when they first opened. Oh, I did go back when they were clearing everything and the prices were still high. Awful store.
He is freaking stupid.
Really I think he’s spending too much time getting butt sex in his office but....well.. what ever. Not my company not my problem.
The shareholders and board of directors should have learned from JC Penny AND Chick-Fil-A. They did not.
Had they gone the route of Chick-Fil-A they would be busting at the seems with costumers.
Target had one thing that I liked. It was some rubber straps that had spikes (actually more like bolts) in the bottom that you could slip over any shoe so you can walk on ice without falling on your butt. I keep mine in my glove compartment in my car and they’ve saved me - especially for walking my dog- more than once. These were only $7 for a pair.
Other than that I don’t go to Target...as a store it’s a mess.
Bkmrk. Agree. ‘Watch this space.’
So have other stores stated what their policies are? Is a man who is under the delusion that he’s a woman allowed in the women’s washroom at Walmart? Has Walmart specifically said that this would not be allowed?
I’m thinking that any store that comes out and says that people must use the correct washroom would be under attack immediately. Hopefully that store would have extra staff, because when the attacks came at Chick Fil-A, they got swamped!
good point. The truth is that Target is finished.
Why did this vapid putz have to say anything. He could have let it be, but no, he was thinking with his hind brain. “This will put me in good with the freaks and fairies....that’ll give us more business”.
Either that or the jerk likes to play little miss hermaphroditie dress up itself and decided to bring down a multi billion dollar company for the good of fag power in America
To my knowledge Wal Mart is not allowing this crap to happen.
Walmart has family bathrooms. It is a large handicapped single occupancy bathrooms.
It is named so that Mom can go to the bathroom and have her boys in the bathroom with her instead of looking under stalls, or Dad can take the daughter to the bathroom and help her. It is advertised as letting disabled people have help of the opposite gender. And if it was a single person of indeterminate gender, no one cares.
And Walmart does have full sets of womens’ and men’s bathrooms.
You weren't hired to "change the world," you were hired to run a freaking store.
And the Bar Association is the largest giver to the Dems. Make of that what you will. They hit paydirt. Same with the gay marriage issue. It’s all for them. My SIL’s lawyer said so. She’s loving every minute of it.
Look at the stock price for Macy’s (M) from the day they dropped Trump’s merchandise.
Neither have I. For the same reason.
The BOD needs to fire this POS, and target American values.
They will have to discount the merchandise to wholesalers (garage sale professionals) who will not attach the name with it.
Many people were actually in favor of getting the salvation army out of the entrance to target and other stores which I can understand. I went to a mall during the holidays and there were so many charites and panhandlers that one had to get through just to get in the mall. It was a carnival atmosphere but not necessarily welcome when so many people are asking for money. It was actually quite irritating.
This is different. It is a safety issue. We all have mothers, wives and daughters and we are conerned about some pervert attacking them. Target is a major lawsuit just waiting to happen. I’m sure that all the officers are shortselling their stock options.
