Fix the filters for straight trans women
The new gender filter is... well I see what you were trying to do with it. However, it screwed over straight trans women even more than before.
How am I supposed to browse straight/bi men who are into people like me? All I can do is say I’m looking for “men” but of course it’s a gay app so the vast majority aren’t here for trans women.
It’s absolutely useless for me to browse a grid of men who 9/10 times are not even into my boobs. And I’m sorry but I downright refuse to hit on gay men looking for one of them to be bi or straight on an app where they come to meet other men primarily.
At least before I could check out the trans tribe as a lot of cishet and cisbi guys would put that in their bio in order to signal they were into women.
This is doubly bad for stealth trans women as it pressures them to publicly out themselves on the app in order to get men hitting on them, as waiting for them to message is the only reliable way to find the needles in the haystack.
Why not at least allow me to filter out any guy who isn’t looking for women?? Super disappointing.

There's an app called Feeld that is more of a wide open space for anyone looking for relationships that are not heternormative.
Grindr is (was) a space for men who have sex with men (okay sure, with some wiggle room).
But when I see profiles of folks who present as and consider themselves straight women - and then of course, here come the "straight" men looking for those women ("No dudes!" they warn), it just doesn't make sense.
Cyberspace is infinite. No reason to invade spaces that were not created for you. -

Can’t you use a different app? Grindr is a gay app for gay users not trans
