Restore ethnicity selection. Who ever decided this was a good idea is a goober!

As a racial minority, I have never taken racial preference filter negative and this filter may function better way to eliminate unnecessary communications and possible misunderstanding and conflicts. Personally, racial preference filter is just same to age, gender, and ****** orientation filter and I hope Grindr can discuss about this matter and consider to have racial preference filter back. Thanks for your positive consideration.

I cancelled my unlimited membership today because of this issue removing the ethnicity filter.
If you want a refund just go to the App Store and email Apple. Not
Sure about Android. I am being refunded in full.

I am white , I am gutted they removed this search filter. I prefer a person of colour. I have cancelled my subscription because of this. Foolish mistake Grindr

Because mark porter. It’s a choice to want to chat date meet up with a particular type of person. I’m sure you have a type of person you are interested in. Idiot.

I have cancelled mine today. They refused to even listen to my help message and closed it down with a ridiculous message about supporting BLM. Well you’ve just taken away the black community from me so how does this support the black inclusion. You’ve lost my continued custom and will never purchase again. Not even if it’s brought back. I used to have unlimited membership and that is being refunded to me in full so you’ve lost money. I believe more will follow too.

I have cancelled my
Unlimited subscription today and getting a full refund. I will never pay Grindr again in the future.

To the guy who make the very long comment. I want to say that’s very well worded. I didn’t even think of it from your point of view.

I have cancelled my subscription today. Have been an xtra member for several years. They have just lost my unlimited membership payment as I’m being refunded in full.

Agree 100%.

Having a ****** preference to a particular race is not racist in itself. People should have the right to be attracted to whoever they are attracted to without judgement (sound familiar?) Beauty/****** attraction is and forever will be in the eye of the beholder.

IF one were to say that it’s wrong for me to be only sexually interested in one race...how is that any different than the ppl that tell us we are wrong for being sexually attracted to men?...also you’ve effectively blocked minorities from being able to locate each other easily.

I can appreciate what you all are trying to do in today’s climate but I think removing the ethnicity filter was a bit overkill and you’re running the risk of becoming more like those that oppresse the LGBTQ community...Focus more on delivering a positive message rather than removing choices from folks otherwise you risk becoming like a dictator...anyways that’s my 2 cents lol

I think we should all protest against this and put this in our profile name

For black search matters.

I had to shorten it to fit. 😜

Why have you removed this option?
I have a preference for men who are not white.
There is only white guys in my area and although I paid for unlimited Grindr I can scroll all day and not find a black guy.
Removing this is not helping the BLM because it’s hiding their profiles from guys who have a liking to their ethnicity.
On our profiles you have an option to add in your ethnicity. Why is it on there yet you can’t search for it. Surely it’s the same thing.
I want to cancel my subscription if this isn’t added back on. I doubt they will refund the remaining but it’s disgusting how you can remove a search preference.
You may as well remove the age search, height search, etc... as it is all the same thing.

This makes me really annoyed. I cant believe they have removed this option. Like people have said it’s a preference not racists.
We are asked to put our ethnicity on our profiles.
If they remove the search why did they leave it on the profile.

Removing the Ethnicity feature is just one more reason why progressives are polarizing even more society. S******l preference has nothing to do with being racist. Making Grindr users see people that they are not interested is not going to change their minds, make users like other races, or make them less racist. We should all fight for equality, but not who with sleep with. Grindr's decision was just a ludacris populist move to look like they do care. If it really cares, it should put its money where its mouth is.

Bring back the ethnicity filter. None of us are on Grindr to be taught a lesson regarding who we are attracted to. If I want Grindr’s input, I’ll ask for it. Grindr is actually lessening any chance for you to meet who you like. I hope paid members cancel. If membership is free, Grindr can make the rules. When I am paying, I make the rules.

His wishes seem pretty clear. He doesn’t agree with removal of filter. Grindr is in turn “filtering” your options for you. If Grindr wants to be “fair” which is a lie, remove all filters. It’s not Grindr’s business who we filter.

Same here! I pay to use the filters to select who I’m interested in and it’s not gonna change my preference. So sick of all the bs !!
