What is behind this sudden push by national retailers to embrace queers...1-2% of the population, at best? Gay C. Penney’s, Target, Macy’s...this is NOT a coincidence.
It's just that the entire retail business in clothing, housewares and cosmetics has a disproportionate number of gay men employed. Since the push to "come out" in the 60s and 70s, many have risen to top management in stores all over the country, and have hired other gays. So the push to oust the Salvation Army from Target and feature gays in advertising or sponsor the lewd "Gay Games" in Ohio (Proctor and Gamble) comes largely from within these companies afraid of an equal employment lawsuit from those who have inside knowledge.

The beautiful people at the top probably started it, perhaps after some “consciousness raising” by a foundation. And from there, it won’t be hard to sell to the male art directors, half of whom are homosexuals.
