Conservatives have launched a boycott of Target after the retail giant was revealed to be selling ‘tuck-friendly’ swimsuits and chest girdles for ‘transgender’ children.
The items are part of a large selection of LGBTQ-themed children’s clothing, books and accessories aimed at sexist minors.

Children’s clothing items sold by Target include a shirt that says “live laugh lesbian” and another that says “Queer Queer Queer Queer.”

Books sold in the children’s section also include materials on gender ideology.
“A book called ‘Bye Bye Binary’ centers on a ‘happy baby’ who ‘refuses to conform to gender binary and instead chooses toys, colors and clothes that make him happy’ and is marketed as a ‘ perfect tool to encourage children to like what they like and is also a great baby shower gift for all expectant parents”, the Daily Wire reports. “Another volume titled ‘The Book of Pronouns’ exposes readers young and old alike to a ‘diverse cast of people and simple text that introduces their pronouns’.”
The shocking selection prompted a swift reaction from conservative commentators who called it far worse than Bud Light had and called for a boycott.
“What @Target is doing is far worse than anything Bud Light has done. They sell breast binders and ‘tuck-friendly’ swimsuits for kids,” Daily Wire host Matt Walsh said. The target calls our bluff. But like any other business, they need our stuff. We did it with Bud Light. Now it’s Target’s turn.

“I try to stay out of @Target as much as possible, but this is the very first thing you see when you walk into the store right now,” conservative musician Five Times August tweeted. “It’s displayed there because they want the kids to see it. Everything is programming. Wherever you go. Stay off target. Friggin’ hateful.
The singer’s tweet included photos of items for sale, one of which included images of naked adults.

Concerned mothers have also filmed themselves questioning targeted employees about the whereabouts of the “straight section” for children.
