All stats we enter should automatically be able to be filtered this makes it fair for everyone and less endless scrolling I understand I have unlimited but I don’t really want to be scrolling unlimited forever some nights I don’t want to have a look through the cascade at all I just want to find my type right now.

BRING IT BACK GRINDR SEEMS TO BE MORE SPAM FLOODED ON YOUR PLATFORM THEN EVER BEFORE HOPEFULLY WHEN THE ETHNICITY FILTER FINALLY!! RETURNS SHOULD FILTER MORE OF THIS OUT? TIME WILL TELL.

Once again I am the person who started this thread. Call me racist if you want, I do not care. I know who I am and those that know me know what I am all about. Forcing me to look at profiles that I am not interested in is not going to make me date these people or hookup with them. I will simply start blocking all profiles that I am not interested in. But I will say this, it is a sad day that there are those in this world who feel entitled to push their own personal agenda on others while simultaneously labeling people with differences of opinion as racist. I respect everybody's opinion even when I do not agree, it would be nice if I could get the same courtesy but I guess that is too much to ask. So I guess a white guy who wants to look at black guys only or latinos only is racist now, my has this world evolved. LMAO

A free replacement for Grindr would be fantastic. Like A4A but better.

Scruff removed ethnicity filter too. We need a replacement.

Who can recommend a better replacement? Grindr is king but I’m ready to change that! It’s overdue!

Grindr are overstepping. I want to meet who I want to meet. How dare they limit my filtering! Time for a replacement app!

All my friends and family are black. But grinder won’t let me see just the people I want to socialise with. Rubbish!

It’s all white purple on my screen now. What am I to do? I see no point in paying for this!

I find it amazing that grunge are telling me who I can connect with. I will not renew.

I can’t find anyone to meet anymore. I’m am leaving too after three where of my subscription.

Incensed. I quit too

It’s crazy it’s been removed. I quit until they bring it back

Great idea. I quit too. Ridiculous they removed it.

Bring back ethnicity filtering. I just cancelled my membership because you removed this feature. I quit until you bring it back.

‘Nuff said

Totally agree that people ought to able to date with whatever ethnicity / culture they wish - be it their own or any other particular culture with which they find themselves particularly attracted. That is a positive thing - and not racism.

Race is just another innate attribute in the same way sexuality and gender are. Are we to delete all of these?

Those who start out thinking that everyone is a racist until they prove themselves otherwise are the idiots in this. The logical extension consistent with that would be to have governments legislating that there must be a target or quota for the minimum number of mixed race mariages or couples in the country with a target of eventually disallowing same race marriages. This would be laughable if it was not so dangerous.

Planet Romeo got this exactly right in my view - and Grindr got it exactly wrong. Hence this discussion! Just reinstate the ethnicity filter same as Romeo did with their perfectly explained perfect rationale.

Racist idiots are like liars and murderers. Liars can say they never lie and still believe it. Murderers can kill and rationalize that they never murder. Racism can never be rationalized as preference. It is pure prejudice. Leave out the filter. Deal with it or delete yourself. Otherwise, NEVER complain about homophobes; it's just their "preference."

Grindr is becoming useless without my ability to search for my interest. You haven't proved or made anything better by removing ethnicity.

I live in a predominantly white area, and having the ethnicity filter allowed me to meet other people from different ethnic groups. While we understand the need to discourage racism on the app, removing the filter doesn’t achieve this. If anything it exacerbates the problem by robbing people of the ability of people to find others within different ethnic groups
