I’ve seen quite a number of them lately that look like they should be shopping at Wal-Mart. Too many lattes and scones?

I have not shopped at Target for two years because of their immorality. I have saved money not shopping their since I tended to buy things I had not planned to. These people will change their tune if people boycott them.

I think the genderless marketing is mostly for the toy dept as I read the article....clothes will still be marked for men/women/boys/girls because of the size differences...

having said that, I've never really liked Target at all and rarely shop there, and I now have even more reason to not shop there....

Well they just closed all of their stores in Canada, so I guess they are working to blackout the ones south of the border too.

I’m losing a lot of acquaintances because I vocalize that thought more and more often.

Unfortunately, I have never bought a single item in a Target store, so I cannot demonstrate my reaction to this insanity in the most obvious way.

Considering how important, normal sex roles, normal sex identification is for most children, this is basically sad. A tail really cannot wag a dog; but a useless idiot can certainly spoil a party.

I suppose possible signage could be “Clothing for children who choose to be boys” and “Clothing for children who choose to be girls.” Adult wear could be similarly designated.

No wonder they went out of business in Canada. They are going to put themselves completely out of business.

One would think Target has bigger concerns

“author Melissa Atkins Wardy said in her blog, Pigtail Pals & Ballcap Buddies, which promotes gender-neutral toys, apparel and other products for children.”

“promotes” here meaning “hawks on her website.” She sells a whole line of t-shirts and books, etc. that dovetail with her spiel.

America: Faggot Nation.

This country has become a pathetic shadow of everything it once was and once stood for.

The big box retailer announced Friday that it will start phasing out gender-based signage in some departments.

The net is, this is an immense marketing and sales opportunity for . . . whoever doesn't do this. Simply sticking with male and female merchandize clarity will do plenty—just making the customer's life easier. But someone who goes Trump in this area will pick up a whole lotta customers just because people are fed up with PC.

Sorta like—how many empty spaces can you find in Chick-Fil-A's lot on just about any day but Sunday? That homo-cott was a huge boost for them.

“Feminine” and “Masculine” will replace “Women’s” and “Men’s.”

The “Youth” area will now be labeled “Potential Molestee.”

The shift comes in response to customer feedback that distinguishing between products for girls and boys is unnecessary and maybe even harmful.

Utter Bullshit. Normal people do not object to designations such as "Boys" or "Girls". It is only that teeny tiny percentage of sick perverted drama queens who would make such an observation, and apparently they have made it a point to go around objecting to such things, and faking a demand.

Normal people do not care about this. Only psychos care about this.
