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.

People are people. On your logic, this platform is currently discriminatory on the grounds of *** (women are excluded), gender identity, and age (among others). Maybe someone will go to the general social media or the press with a story that Grindr Is sexist, genderist, and ageist, while it has rapidly removed ethnicity filters to be simply politically correct without thinking it through properly. Having an ethnicity filter is not racist, there is no special racial privilege, and it does not lead to hate crimes.
Your approach h should be evidence-based: how many complaints had you had insisting the filter be removed because it was racist. Precious few, I suspect, if any.
I think platforms that keep ethnicity filters will over time increase their market share from Grindr.
So please bring it back, for our sakes and yours. -

It’s not racist to try to find what you are interested in

Restore the ethnicity filter. I like an ethnicity that does not live where I am located. Remember that this is a dating app, please. It’s not a political forum.

Bring back ethnicities search… It’s not up to you to decide what I like! Also, you’re choosing ethnicity to be so high and mighty about but you’re leaving in weight height and age? Come on people!

Why is grindr making it more difficult for guys to find guys they’re attracted to? Just because someone is only attracted to Latinos, Black, Asian, white - whatever, it doesn’t make them racist. It’s just their ****** preference.

I agree. Just like people look for tops and bottoms, various ages, heights, etc., people haver preferences for race. I don't get it. I'm NOT ageist, heightist, sexual preference ist, nor racist.

Grindr am unlimited member consistently and am really not happy that there is no ethnicity option. Don’t you think not having it will spur more hate and unwanted trolls? I have my order of preference too and it a big waste of time to be back and forth especially since people hardly send their pics these days. I had to block this guy caz he being out of line with me. If ethnicity was there I would better able to know where to put my Energy

I kind of feel like this is bull, I pay for your service so that I am able to shorten my list of options. i’m not a racist I just want to choose who I flirt with. In fact, it’s my right.
Please bring back the Ethnicity option.

I am Asian and a lot less people contact me now than before the ethnicity feature was removed, Because I like many People from ethnic minorities are now lost In a sea of white profiles, we are only 13% of the UK population After all! I will cancel my Extra membership Because of this!

If you’re offended by Grindr having an Ethnic Filter but you socially accept blackpeoplemeet.com then you’re biased hypocrite.
I have my preference and if that offends you then that’s your problem. Grindr removed a feature used by paying customers to cater to free users! I myself and manny order users WILL NOT pay a dime until this feature is brought back.
