Trans
Not transphobic but there has to be a fine line between gays looking for gays and guys looking for fem/trans. It seems more than half of the profiles I look at are looking for trans only, and this is very annoying being gay... A new app, or strong filters are necessary. Please don't make me stop using my favorite app due to such a silly reason

Interesting thought you have there mostly because of how flawed it is. Just because someone is transsexual does not mean they are gay. A trans-man is someone born a female that wants to become a man. That means there is a good chance a trans-man does not have a penis but in fact has a vagina. Since they were born a woman they would not suck a dick like a gay man but like a straight woman they may take it in the ass or the vagina, flip side if they don’t have a penis they cannot top. Even if the trans-man has completed all the surgeries that changes the anatomy but does very little to the physiology. Meaning they may have a penis but they cannot get a natural erections or have an ejaculation in the same way someone born as a man can.

Put in the most simple terms Grindr was for gay/bi men, that's men with Cocks who want to meet men with cocks
I've just had a rude man who looking for another str8 man for the sale of his wife's panties, but you have to prove your str8 married couple -

100% agree with this! Grindr should have a version of the app specifically for trans people. Most of the trans profiles on Grindr are obviously fake (made by AI). Grindr refuses to prevent even fake trans profiles from being posted because they don’t want to ‘offend”. So ridiculous! Grindr is a lost cause. My advice is to cancel your Grindr subscription and find a better app!

Expressing sexual DISINTEREST is NOT discrimination. Inclusion and acceptance are SOCIAL issues that have no place in a conversation regarding sexual inclinations. I will never be sexually interested in women, trans or crossdressers, and that is perfectly acceptable.
I have no interest in using an app for every orientation, as I only want to connect with other gay men. I don't want to filter and ignore 30 women, just to get to see a single gay member. Female and trans profiles on a gay app is like adding bacon to a vegan meal: it might add some flavor, but it still ruins the purpose of being vegan. It still ruins the desired experience.

Erin,
the odds you were banned from Grindr for being trans are no-existant.
It has to be something else like... your behaviour on it... or third party tools that can alter security etc (ie. Vpns mock locations etc )
Anyway when you are banned, there must be the reason of your ban in the email.
If you feel like it s a mistake from Grindr, you can also submit to ticket to make appeal for the ban.
You might have to ask yourself what you did wrong instead of calling everyone/everything transphobic.

Erin,
Grindr has a “Trans” tribe that you can identify as and filter by. I find it hard to believe they would ban members of a group that they created a tribe for, members of a group that they have advertisements from. Grindr does all users to report others for fake profiles, harassment, hate speech, trying to sell things, underage users, underage pictures, open discussion about illegal activity. So did you identify as a gay male top when you do not have a penis and so you are not physically equipped to top? If you did that would be a fake profile, similar to someone identifying as a runner who is paralyzed from the waste down. How can someone identify as someone who performs an action that they are not physically capable of performing?

That’s why I get banned from Grindr just for being trans. Completely transphobic. You got it completely backwards.

There are adds on grindr specifically targeting trans people. That is why grindr will ignore any comments or concerns about limiting grindr to gay men. Money talks and bullsh*t walks. It’s like politics, unless your giving them money they don’t care what you think.

Critical problem with simple solution. Hard filters.
Being part of the LGBT community doesn't imply being turned on by every side of this community.
This is the same bullshit as removing the origins specification as before...a black dude, will still be a black dude. People will still have racial fetishism. You can't do anything against.
If we go this way...age filter...Weight filter are as much discriminating...
Come on...we are still free to choose with who we want to be and fuck with.
Thinking that leaving the situation as it is, is ridiculous.
A dude not willing a trans won't talk to the said trans. And will cockblock them anyway.
If I don't want effeminate, trans, chubs, non binary, and prefer this or that...it s my business.
No one can make me change my point of view, and all the woke propaganda is just lame as fuck. That s the cancer dividing us instead of cohabiting peacefully.
If you are shocked about this proposal. You are the problem. Not us.
Grindr has always been a men dating app.
MEN app. Not lesbian nor trans or non binary. -

I'm tired of seeing these half men half women on the app. Why would a man think he's straight when he wants a women with a dick? He says in his profile"no men" yet wants a dick. You're contributing to people who have a real mental problem and sexual hang up. Not too mention all the scammers that are on the app now. Which are most likely run by the mafia. Clean up your site. I've even asked some young guys their age and they tell me they are under 18. I pay for unlimited and I expect to be protected which you are not doing which is your fiduciary responsibility. And these are the people that are always on line taking up all the space. You need to educate yourselves on slang words and letters, what they mean. People are selling and buying drugs on your site and you don't even know it. Grindr has become the gutter of the gay men meet up sites.

Grindr has grinded to a halt for me. Profile deleted, app deleted. Grindr is now GrindHer, go ahead, please just change your name already.

I feel like labeling people and putting them in groups has been a political tool used in the past. Oh that’s right Nazi Germany, the Spanish Inquisition, the crusades, England under Bloody Mary, segregation, Salem witch trials, the United States civil war, currently in the Middle East and China. Most people believe that everyone has the right to be themselves, but they don’t have the right to invade the space of others. You have the right to practice your religion but you do not have the right to go into some else’s religious building and practice your religion there. Depending inclusion is disrespecting the people Grindr was created for. If you identify as a woman, regardless of your chromosomes are xx, xy, xxy, xxx, xxxy or anything else Grindr was created for gay men, not straight women why do you even want to be on it? The simple fact is if you don’t have the full male anatomy and physiology, meaning it functions including erection and ejaculation you are not physically qualified for certain gay sex acts. It’s not about who you are but what you can do.

Truly, I think this boils down to one thing. The lgbtqia banner is great for politics, and allowing everybody to gain equal rights. Like the equal right to a dating app that actually is my dating pool, and not my political pool.
The lgbtqia banner is a political tool, and shouldn't even be a part of the conversation regarding a same-secks dating app.

And to say WE have other options like scruff etc is hilarious because you all are there too. Get out of our spaces and stay in your lane. Imagine a trans fir trans app and a biological man who likes other biological men joins. You think he will be protected as a minority? Not a chance.

Brandi this app was designed and intended for gay men. But like everything we have you and all your type take it over, barge your way in and ruin it for us. You then claim it was yours to begin with. No it wasn't. You wanna be a woman and you like men? Great go to a straight app like tinder and leave us alone.
