Target faces backlash over handling of LGBTQ merchandise.

TL;DR Summary
Target shoppers have been tearing down Pride signs and badgering workers over the retailer's LGBTQ merchandise, including "tuck-friendly" swimwear. The company has lost $9 billion in the last week following boycott calls over LGBTQ-friendly kids clothing. Target has announced it will remove some of the offending items partly because of safety fears for their workers. The highly-criticized "tuck-friendly" women's swimsuits have extra fabric in the crotch area to allow trans women who have not had gender-affirming operations to conceal their private parts.
