Target Selling Gay Marriage Greeting Cards For Couples


In a move that could add even more complexity to its history with the LGBT community, Target is now selling greeting cards honoring same-sex marriages.
As the Minneapolis Star-Tribune is reporting, the cards -- which are produced by Carlton Cards, a unit of American Greetings, and hit store shelves in June -- feature phrases like "Mr. & Mr." and "Two very special women, one very special love." The items began appearing on Target's card racks a month after the Minnesota-based retail giant controversially began selling T-shirts commemorating Gay Pride month.
"Target is focused on diversity and inclusivity," Target spokeswoman Molly Snyder told the Star-Tribune.
