Target’s financial losses, as a result of their transgender bathroom escapade, have been significant. In mid-April, the store made this statement: “We welcome transgender team members and [customer] guests to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender identity.” Yet, this revolutionary policy has resulted in a $5 billion loss since April.
Truth and Action has been following the progression of this fluid story, reporting earlier,
Gender identity is in bold print, all caps in today’s headlines, as well as cranked to 11 in soundbites, forcing all to sit up and pay attention. As a recap, Truth and Action has synopsised exactly what one means by transgender in the following:
Despite making up a very small percentage of the United States population, transgender people — and transgender rights — have been in the news quite a bit lately. The heaviest estimates indicate that 1/400 Americans are transgender. Transgender is not to be confused with transsexual — a term denoting someone who has actually had surgery to change their sexual appearance. To be considered transgender, all one has to do is “identify” as the opposite gender.
The differences between sex and gender have largely been lost on the people advocating for “transgender rights” — or the right for men who identify as women (and vice versa) to be able to use a different bathroom. Sex — being the biological differences between male and female — is the determining factor when one designs restroom facilities. Gender — being the social and cultural roles traditionally associated with sex — does not actually factor into the practicality of restroom use.
The backlash has been substantial necessitating Target’s CEO Brian Cornell to spend time on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” in an attempt to reassure investors and customers. His efforts resulted in an even greater decline in stock prices.

Target is going in the history books as the one company that self destructed because of some very horrible management P.R. decisions and not because of loosing market share due to the economy or a better retail outlets.
Catering to the unarmed transgendered people is a big looser.
Bye bye you fools, the ppl are sick of the 1% nut jobs ruining our country – we speak with our money, target get ready to be history!!!!!
I stand up for my beliefs and buy accordingly. Apparently many others do as well. Target, hats off to you for standing up for yours but I don’t agree with you and therefore have taken my business elsewhere.
Bye Target! Will shop elsewhere….
Good. Target is owned by a Muslim group in France.
Good, let them go belly up for supporting perverts!
If my daughter is with me I take her to then men’s bathroom with me and let her use stall while I’m there watching the door. She gets embarassed( but she is safe because no one knows or expects her to be in the men’s bathroom plus the freaks are targeting the women’s bathroom.) I tell her she is in a safe space with me no need to worry.
Lmao
Probably a pedophile
