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?

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.

“... for those who got the kid but not the ring...”

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.

Telling the truth is an insult.

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?

[This new PC stuff is coming into the mainstream so fast that I can’t keep up with what is and isn’t appropriate.]

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.

I thought baby daddy was a word describing an un-married father
regardless of race or skin color.

Let us not forget Michelle Obama once famously introduced Barack Obama as “my baby’s daddy.”

Well, I am offended that the people this is marketed to do not have enough of a grasp of the language to use the possessive, “my baby’s daddy”, but rather “my baby daddy”. It is lazy and ignorant. It isn’t cute, and should not be normalized.
