This feature allows me to search for men who are looking for my race. This also avoids the issue of those that are not looking for men of my race and the embarrassment that can sometimes occur after someone decides that they want to be racist ***. Sad but true.

As a dark skinned man, I couldn’t agree more. It’s about time we have a mechanism to make people aware of a racist profile. Blocking isn’t enough because they’ll still stay and harass all the others. Racism is not something to play with. We’re already a minority as gay man, we shouldn’t feel unsafe on Grindr

Ethnicity should be made free. Very soon you'll lose to new apps

As a user in Malaysia, I would love if I can choose the race/ethnicity.. In Malaysia, we have Malay, Indian, Chinese, etc. Some of us, we have our own choice. For example, as a Malay in Malaysia, I prefer to hang out with Malay gay.

Great idea

Can't figure out why me and my partner are the only gay white guys in Victoria.

Being able to hide your profile from people who do not meet the requirements of your preferred category.

So if you select "no men over 40" then all profiles that show men over 40 will not be able to see your profile or make contact with you. Or if race is an issue then you can select white, black, asian or whoever else and then all other races cannot see your profile or contact you.

See only those you wish to connect with without having to pay all the time.

Grindr should allow free members to filter Race since people have preferences

I would like to be able to filter the guys by race and age. Sometimes we don't want to see old guys or guys of a certain race on our grindr. And we can only block so many people in a day. It would be better if there were a filter preventing us from seeing certain users.

Selection by ethnicity option

I think you should be able to search a race you prefer and not have to see everyone you are not interested in

To be able select the nationaly background you want to search for example you only want to look at asian people profile or latino profile, etc. Without paying the premium..

Not into asian, not into fat, not into fems, etc should not be allowed on profiles. It gives negative effect to the discriminated group. We need to stop discrimination and racism on grindr its too common

Include Indian and Chinese as options both countries are different races than Asian and south Asian. Both combined are close to half of the global population. Again is multi ethnic again every miles in India culture, cuisine, language (both written and spoken) change. So India atleast deserves to identified separately

This feature would allow people to mark more than one ethnicity instead of just "mixed".

There alot of white people on the grind and i dont get to see alot of people of color around and think we shouldnt pay forbthis because it's unfair

I would like to be able to choose the race/ ethnicity I want to date.

Less transphobic users... or more response to reports....

Honestly, I've never seen so much negativity from so many. Instead of using the "about" section to post useful informative stuff about themselves and what they want Grindr is plagued with loads of negative moaning out their petty prejudices, dislikes and what and who they don't want or like. Gay life should be uplifting and positive. A large section of the profiles on here make us look like a bunch of moaning miserable old women.

Hypocrites too: Half the "No Pic No Chat" dictats come from those showing obscured faces.
