Target is apologizing to offended customers after shoppers began slamming the retailer for offering "Baby Daddy" greeting cards ahead of Father’s Day, and after one Twitter user calling them “an insult to black fathers and a slap in the face to the African-American community as a whole.”

Man oh man--Target does it again. They can't seem to avoid getting in their own way. First, anything goes restrooms, and now this. Didn't they learn from Starbuck's cup label fiasco? I'm sure they meant this to be "inclusive" for those who got the kid but not the ring, but apparently those in that situation didn't want to be reminded of the fact and those who actually married their significant other before having kids resented that this implied that they didn't.

Aren’t they the ones who coined the term?
Now they are offended by it?

“an insult to black fathers”
I can understand this part, because who KNOWS if they are the actual fathers or not?
To: EinNYC
It’s like they keep painting a target on their backs.

Target has the most inapt people running the stores.
The one near me is carrying what they say ‘sells’. BS
Someone is getting kickbacks to stock certain items if you ask me.
They’ve got to losing.

THIS is what you get when some females have such LOW self esteem and such a complete lack of respect for themselves and their children....
This is truly a BS culture.

There should be special Baby Daddy cards for the boys who have more than one girlfriend pregnant at the same time.

Well, I am offended by lots of the cards that Hallmark puts out now. Check out the card section of any card store, grocery store or drug store. You will see what I mean.

Get on your local school board and learn of the myriad ways subtle signals and messages are delivered by sweet, young teachers, fresh out of leftie teacher colleges and you should appreciate the removal of "baby daddy" cards from a distribution center.
Consider this:
Every time you go shopping, your eyes scan words that are meant to grab you and make you want to buy a certain product.
I think this is a good thing Target has done.

So, now, the use of ‘baby daddy’ is cultural appropriation and racist?

If the truth hurts because it shines the light on your darkest faults don’t blame the one that brings the light.
Do something to correct that painful fault.
