It ain't pasty white beer belly balding males who shop at Target.

Soccer moms aren't too happy with Target.

It's definitely because they were just too flamboyant and misrepresenting women.

Or what excuse you have this time?

Also, it's algorithms. You have no idea if target is actually losing money.

I wonder if Target is aware that even cisgender gay men, lesbians, and bisexuals have prejudice towards transgender men and women?

But the real issue appears to be that some of the transgender items in the Pride clothing line, comes in children sizes.

Just demographics of the Target shopper:

The data shows that the typical Target shopper is a suburban mother between 35 and 44 years of age. The typical Target customer also has some college education and a household income of $80,000.

OR follow me here. Maybe the boycott started like 3 days ago didn't have an effect over a week ago when Target released its quarterly financials which were less than stellar.

I mean this is a stellar coincidence here. Target's first quarter financials come out on the 17th, and then the stock drops...


A trend that has been going for quite some time by the way.

But, nope, it was the boycott on the 23rd.

I agree.

I don't know if I'd equate the recent loss in market value to the Pride clothing line appearing. Pride month isn't officially until June. So a comparison of June 2023 to June 2022 in clothing sales would be a strong indicator if there was backlash.

But it's being reported that Soccer moms aren't too happy with Target. Sounds as if because go the complaints earlier in the week that the stores have moved the Pride clothing displays from the front entrance of the stores to the clothing department. As well as removed some items all together.
