Fifty years after Stonewall, LGBT people who listen to a song, stream a series or read a book have more positive images to draw upon than ever before.
But where are our faces in the ads that sell us those things — or, for that matter, pretty much everything? Rarely seen is the same-sex couple sizing up choices at a car dealership, passing around a tube of toothpaste during their morning routine or sharing a smooch as anniversary rings are exchanged.
“There’s just a very small group of companies that make an effort to educate themselves and to progress… to show us as we are, or appeal directly to the LGBT consumer,” says Todd Evans of Rivendell Media.

Include Target on that list, says Evans, who points to the general merchandise retailer as an example of a company committed to LGBT-specific marketing and products.

And that, coupled with their accompanying ‘anything goes’ restroom policy, is why I choose to shop elsewhere.
I haven’t been inside a Target store in 3 years.
Pandering to the one or two percent while ignoring the eighty percent of folks who might shop there.
Maybe Target could picture Unicorns married to cats in order to sell more clothing....
Ask J.C. Penney
What is Target?
TGI Friday restaurant has 2 dudes kissing in an advert, so they are off my list. No great loss.
Considering the minscually small % of people that fall into this category......Anything more than a miniscule amount of money and effort expended would prove to be a losing proposition.
Go ahead Kay’s and Zales, and all the rest of the diamond market . . . go ahead and cut your own throats. See what Americans will do with “Every Kiss Begins With K” with a couple of Sodomites playing tongue hockey.
Oh, and they’re also trying to get you to switch your wireless coverage over to Sprint.
Yep, I don’t shop at Target either. My one daughter-in-law shops there all of the time.
I do not shop at Target.
Ditto. Dunno. I’ve seen the signs but no holes in them. Curios.
You letter people are not welcome outside your little enclaves and we don’t want to see you or your vile behavior in advertisements or anywhere else for that matter. Just like Dred Scott, Obergfell was a bad decision, and will be overturned.
Good one...
Given the raw numbers, why is this demographic so desirable to attract. It might be that lacking children this group has more disposable income. Profit is what attracts business to pander to this group.

I don’t think so——half the country either has no clue or does not care. The “dumbing down” of America is a successful endeavor by the minions controlling society, schools and the media. Unless there’s a great awakening, don’t count on it....
The gay thing is a yawn - they’ve gone from cultural victims to culture bullies in a short 10 years...
Yawn on Target too.
