Target has been in the headlines nonstop over the past month following their announcement that they would allow men who identify as women in women’s restrooms and changing rooms at all of its retail locations. Many on the far left and in the LGBT community praised the move as a step towards equality and inclusiveness. Others, however, have opposed the policy — strongly.
The American Family Association’s pledge to boycott the retail giant has gathered nearly 1.3 million signatures to date. The hashtag #BoycottTarget remains one of the highest trending topics across social media.
Target, however, was not the first to wade into the contentious transgender bathroom debate. After a number of contradictory city ordinances across the state of North Carolina made it to where nobody knew who was allowed in what restrooms, the state legislature passed House Bill 2 (HB2), requiring that individuals use the restroom that corresponds with their biological sex.
Since then, the United States Justice Department has sued the state of North Carolina and the Obama administration has issued guidelines requiring schools to allow students to use whichever bathroom or locker room they wish to use.
Now, a major North Carolina newspaper is comparing HB2 to the segregation of blacks and whites in the first half of the 20th century, and telling girls that if they are not okay with seeing male genitalia in their school locker rooms, they are bigots.

Cancel your subscriptions now!! Boycott paper! All part of plan to undercut American Values!!
someone should burn the newspapers headquarters to the ground
WTF
If I had to be in the same room with men I would laugh at them and just leave
These politicians are nothing but perverts to push this ridiculous rule. Let’s see how their kids make out doing this and as soon as they get raped the rules will change.
The statement that the newspaper commented to that young girl is one of the most ignorant,disrespectful and disgraceful that I have ever heard in my life !
I can’t understand why anyone would think this is ok,I would think even gay people with children would not be confortabe with this rule. It is not a law, how can it be enforced? I can understand if a man is dressed to the nine as a women out in a bar or somewhere and uses the ladies room instead of the men’s room out of fear . This rule doesn’t say they have to be dressed as a women so a guy dressed as a guy wants to use the women’s room,why,he dressed as a guy, so there is no fear no intimadattion,so why is this necessary. Why in the locker rooms.i believe that this administration is trying to divide this country, I truly believe that they are trying to start a revolution in this country .
Don’t overcome it girls …..vehemently stand against it
This is pure evil. An we need to wake up an say no. It is up to the states not the federal government.
This is something that shouldn’t even be dealt with, it’s a non-issue, and people should just refuse to do it.
