Did you guys know Target has a Pride section now?

It’s AMAZING.

Not sure that's a good idea. Have to commend Target as they've walked the walk when it comes to gay rights. But this smells like a marketing ploy that, by design, separates gay from straight. Just sell the damn rainbow t-shirt. If someone wants to separate themselves even further by identifying with a flag, then let them. All this does, like the rainbow flag t-shirt, is create an "Us vs. Them." That's not how inclusion and equality is attained.

Of course it’s marketing. It’s Target. But you should at least do some research before you decide it’s bad. “Love wins” is hardly devicive. @Ynotisay

@Fluffy407 Is that what should do? I remember living in the Castro in San Francisco when a gay flag on a house meant something. It was also dangerous. That's when a lot of gay people paid a serious price for being gay. It's very, very different now.
And as a reminder, "Love wins" wasn't just an LGBTQ movement. It was the antithesis of separation. Flags, as an example, are all about separation. But I'll do my research. Thanks for the tip.
