Tough on Target. They wanted to curry favor with a special interest group while ignoring their base and took it right on the chin.

Those whose goal has been to do harm to women and children now have an open door to do so at Target with its change in policy. The CEO could care less. Now they are losing sales and want to recover. Money talks.

I spent quite a bit of money at Target on a monthly basis and at Christmas. I won't go back to a store that puts PC interests ahead of the safety of women and children.


can't you pee before you go shopping?

never in my life have I seen so many people up in arms over peeing.

get real

maybe the rest of us will actually be able to buy what we need at Target rather than find the shelves wiped clean.

Yay! I hate pooping or peeing with other people in the room. I don't want to be there when others are doing it either. Privacy. I like it.

Now if only offices would start doing the same thing....

What does Target plan to do with their dressing room policy? They let men use the women's dressing room. That is even worse, imho.

Has there been a case of sexual assault reported due to this?

While I think it's a waste of money, I hope those who are overly concerned about the genitalia of the person in the stall next to them will avail themselves to the single sex restroom. It's also helpful for families with small children.

A man was arrested for videoing women as they changed in the dressing room.

Me too. And no doubt Target knows this, too.

It also puts the issue of use to rest.
