Please restore ethnicity filter
I am Asian, and I would like to have the ethnicity filter option back. As a "minority", I don't think the filter option is racist. It offers me choices. Sometimes I want to search for Asians for example,, and if there is this option, it will make my search much easier to find.

Grindr is not going to change anything. Think about it... fewer filters means there is a higher number of "non-matching" profiles on your grid. That means you are SPENDING MORE TIME on the app sifting through non-matching profiles = more money from advertisers + higher incentive for users to upgrade to a more expensive plan for a larger grid. You think Grindr is ever going to bring back filters and give up these new profits? Fat chance! You've all been duped in the name of social justice while Grindr rakes in the profits AND woke points. Remember, Grindr is in business to make money, not to make you feel better about yourselves or make the app more efficient! Next to go will be the age/height/weight filters because those are "discriminatory" as well.

Can we get a turn around time on this issue being resolved from Grindr Administrators or was this platform just put up to placate complainants?

Bring back the filter. We are attracted to what we are attracted to. It doesn't mean we are racist if we don't want to connect with every race. Enough with the extreme left wing woke people.

Simple, it's a choice as is body type, age or other preferences..nothing discriminatory.

I'm a white guy living in a city where there aren't a lof Middle Eastern guys. How am I supposed to quickly look for someone without the race filter? The FUNCTION of the race filter was to ACTIVELY search for someone, not intended to BLOCK people. Blocking people from a certain race solely based on their race is racist. Looking for someone with a specific skin tone, height, age, role or relationship status is a preference! #dontfilteroutfilters

Bring back ethnicity filter or reduce prices. That's literally why people subscribe to XTRA/Unlimited - to be able to search for what they like. Fix it.

It’s not the same Lewensredder.
You are capable of choosing to be a top/bottom or versatile.
However, you are not capable of choosing skin tone and year you were born. -

Totally agree. I appreciate the fight against racism but if one were to remove that as a filter then same would have to go for position preferences which can be interpreted as bottom shaming, or ageism etc. I think general awareness campaigns would be a better approach. Please return the ethnicity filter

Maybe they should change from race to preference that way it’s not a race thing it’s what do you prefer. At end of the day folks are going to have what they prefer and nothing going to change that. They need to bring it back or rename it.

The first in response to your negative comments I'm just going to disregard them as the outpouring of an ignorant mind. Second I think we're confusing "ethnicity" filter with preference. I personally prefer Latino men being a Caucasian myself. I have nothing against white men or black men or whatever nationality. It's simply preference. I've tried out the different flavors and come to the conclusion that that's just what I like. It has nothing to do with your race. You as a person however is a completely different story. However we're all being forced to essentially look at everything. I don't think race is something that should be a dividing issue with us, because we're all on the same boat. I personally would like this "ethnicity" filter to be reinstalled because I don't care to look at several hundred more people in my area having to swipe down repeatedly. I'm only looking for my type.

Bring back the filter and stop politicizing sexual attraction. No one owes anyone a date or sex if they are not interested! The app is less efficient with more profiles cluttering the grid and paid members (Xtra, Unlimited) were never reimbursed for the reduced features.
