Target’s ‘trophy’ shirt causes uproar online
Though thousands have taken to Twitter and a Change.org petition criticizing the piece of clothing, the retail chain said it is meant to be a ‘fun wink.’
Many have called the shirt, which sells for $12.99, sexist. Others don’t see what the big deal is.
Hey @Target. Way to tell girls/young women that they’re only some guy’s accomplishment. http://t.co/A5ErNByK9k @RepresentPledge #notbuyingit
