Not a Snow Angel

TargetOh fer Gloria Steinem's sake!

Who at Target though this billboard in Times Square was a good idea, design- or otherwise? And how far up his (you know it was a guy) ass is his head? Cuz (a) a woman with spread legs lying on anything suggests _______ and (b) a woman with spread legs lying on a target where her crotch is the bullseye suggests________? Consumerism! Of course it does.

Fucking idiot design director. Probably can't even spell misogynist. Or woman-hating.

It's only worse that she's smiling.
