It isn’t racist to have a search for ethnicity. It isn’t stopping anyone who is and just punishes who isn’t

No one is targeting minority groups for criminal acts. The fact that there is a potential doesn’t mean we should erase our ****** preferences, I can’t find my Middle Eastern guys anymore now. Put the filter back!

I’m a Caucasian guy and I totally understand you and support you. This has been a big mistake of grindr to meddle with hard left politics and impose their biased views to all of us. Unfortunately now I’m stuck as against our will, they clearly treat us like kids or trash while they’re the enlightened élite. I stupidly bought the yearly subscription. GUYS DON’T BUY THE YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION!

You’re so progressive that you are forcing your political views on me, you are oppressing my ****** preferences, grindr once was a free world where I could find Middle Eastern guys using the filter, now instead it disappeared, you forcibly impose on me the request of some minority group that have the misled opinion that someone may not have ethnic ****** preferences. Stop censoring people stop invading my ****** life, having to tap each single tile in order to find what I’m looking for it’s not clever, it’s plain stupid.

Please please bring back ethnicity filter. Its not racist to have preferences.

Go back to when we could search for Asian Black Latin European White Mixed

Please bring back ethnicity search. It’s not racist. It’s preference. I will likely cancel my xtra membership without it.

Bring BACK the ETHNICITY FILTER! Without it, white guys dominate the grid and taking the filter away kinda backfires in what you were “TRYING” to do. I’m open to all races, but sometimes you might wanna filter through it. One day I may want to hit up some white guys, the next day I may wanna hit up some black guys, the next Asians and so on, but I can’t do that if white guys dominate the grid. Y’all have WHITE WASHED this app even more than it used to be. I definitely won’t be paying for any additional features if this persists!

Just cancelled my annual XTRA. Not worth the extra cash vs free.

Filters mean that we can find a Trans/ Couple/ Sober/ Discreet but we now can't narrow down to find Asian or POC. You think people are EXCLUDING minorities when it's actually the reverse. STUPID STUPID STUPID political overcorrection.

Please return race filter. Removing it does not encourage Integration. it just blurs identity. I want to be seen as a black man not Ambiguous.

why cant I filter by ethnicity anymore? Why was this removed? I pay for my subscription and would like to cancel it because of this removed function

As not being sexually attracted to women does not make gays sexist, or not being into a certain age group does not make you ageist, simply not being sexually attracted to a certain ethnicity does not make you racist. You can not force people to have sex with each other.

You need to realise that for POC the race filter was a great way to connect with other people of our race who May understand our experience more, and we may be more attracted to. Taking away the race filter means my homepage is full of white faces many of whom may not find me attractive. The app is basically unusable now and my years membership ends in October, I certainly won’t be paying for xtra again

How about stopping these overbearing companies from using their power over us by controlling our freedom of expression on who and what we are attracted to. Let us decide what ethnicity we are attracted to. You are no better than the people who try to control what *** we are attracted to.

The absolute best method to vote is to do it with your money. Do not renew premium! I’ve already cancelled.

Same here love asian. Or what ever im moood for faster to find what you loke

I recently noticed underneath the filter drop box, the section that say My Type, the “ethnicity “ choice is not there as before. Why?

ADD ETHNICITY back that was why I bothered to purchase the upgrade . I understand everything going on with this racism & police brutality but that doesn’t mean remove the ethnicity filter . You will lose A LOT of people from this. I will cancel my account if it’s not fixed, y’all can post something cute to be apart of the movement but removing filters is ridiculous.

I can’t believe the ethnicity filter has been removed! What a silly idea! Im into guys from the Middle East/Med and sometimes used this filter for my searches. This isn’t racist it’s a preference! ??‍♂️??‍♂️ This has totally messed up my Grindr experience and I’m sure many users would agree! Please bring it back...

You don’t actually think people are going to accuse this app for encouraging racism... do you? Lol! People are attracted to ethnicities of their choice. They shouldn’t be punished for that by having to block endless profiles! -_-
