Swimwear always seems controversial in the United States. Generally, the complaint is that swimsuits do not hide enough. What could be wrong with a swimsuit specifically made to hide body parts? Leave it to today's Christian Fascists to find a way!
Conservative a-holes are aflame over Target's new line of swimwear aimed at folks who want to keep some parts out of sight. Target joins an ever-growing group of US corporations marketing to transgender people. Expanding their audience is a way to sell more stuff. As Target is marketing "tuck-friendly" swimwear, it means enough people are looking for "tuck-friendly" swimwear to warrant the shelf space. That is all.
Unsurprisingly a politician who would like people to look at something other than her personal life, Lauren Boebert has hopped on the anti-swimwear bandwagon. Denying an affair with a country singer, the Colorado congressperson would rather we focus on where she shops, not speculate about where she sleeps.
