Kids visiting Target will no longer have to consider their gender while shopping.
The
retailer announced Friday it will start removing gender-based labeling
in several departments — including toys, bedding and entertainment —
around the store. The company says the decision comes after feedback and
suggestions from customers.
"As guests have pointed out, in some departments like toys, home or entertainment, suggesting products by gender is unnecessary," reads a statement from Target. "We heard you, and we agree. Right now, our teams are working across the store to identify areas where we can phase out gender-based signage to help strike a better balance."
