I love the diversity but most of us have been, and are, there for other gay men... there are also many homophobic str8 guys (on a gay site) who only want trans...there should be a completely different tab or room or site (whatever you want to call) for different groups or allow for us to filter that out. We know you have to make corporate earning but this mixing is not great. Also, it's not cool when the site is now 50-70% fake profiles, escorts, women/trans/str8 guys, scammers and guys on meth. If you guys keep letting this happen, your brand is dead.

One of solutions could be: just add in profile obligatory info Female looking for female , men for men , or
trans for trans, or something like that and just add filter. Reject is simple,
but this is my suggestion to try respect everyone's.

It was started as a Gay and Bi-Sexual men only site so men could find men for sex. Obviously not profitable enough for the current business owners IMHO, and has led to mission-creep to an extent that it's now laughable when you consider it's original core mission, which is what I guess the vast majority of it's users still use it for.

The sooner it returns to it's core values, the better AFAIC.

@ChristianWilkie

The Problem is that nobody actually knows what a gay man is. All these stupid letters are divisive. You can be queer (I still have no idea what that is?) and gender fluid (that is a misnomer). Is a Trans Woman who's attracted to women a lesbian? It's not about equality anymore.

I don't feel part of a community - that's been destroyed with the God-awful flags popping up trying to represent someone called Geoff and his wife, Desmond.

"You have to be a member" when you can't get into certain 'gay' pubs or clubs because your face doesn't fit... Meanwhile a wail of Sirens scream past you on a hen night.

Its not The Village any more. It's the Freak Show Mile' where tourists come to see 7' tall drag queens, men in leather, Those wearing D&G while devoid of personality.

I'm a gay man. I'm not confused or have any desire to look at, women, meet or see men who look like women or men looking for a cock in a frock.

The site needs to be for gay and bisexual men looking for men. Gay men are few and far between and numbers are dwindling because the site doesn't know what it's for or why it's there.

This is not a gay men's site. It's for all lgbtqi+ individuals great to see after we got our rights the stupid infighting has already gotten this bad

Yes, bi men are welcome, but when they're looking for men! They can go on the straight apps when they want to look for a girl. No need to turn our stomachs with tits and piss flaps, thankyou very much.

Makes as much sense as a lesbian app allowing men on.

from the very beginning grindr has been an app for bi folks as well.

This is so important. Women have so many other websites and dating apps where they dominate. There is no reason for them to be on a website for men who are interested in men.

I think the point has been missed I as a Bi Man who enjoys chatting on sites like(grindr) am not wanting to guess about there sex I'm looking for Bi men,gay Men not women who are now men or ibtw

Can gay males just have our own space please? Nothing against transmen I just don’t want to be tapped or contacted by them as I am amar sex attracted and it’s never gonna work!

Wayne Davis but that's where you forgot the central point of the discussion, this is a GAY AND LGBT RELATIONSHIP app non-heterosexual and without this thing about people from the liberal swing scene wanting to look for and annoy those who don't like this scene, just like they themselves persecute and report our profiles on other apps, especially those of trans women, now they come here and still think they have the right to want something, give their opinion and give moral lessons and talk about "hypocrisy and misogyny" hehe spare us. Contrary to what you straight people think, you are not the owners of the world, you never were in fact, you just imposed it for a long time and apparently you still want to impose the shitty social norm that you created to normalize and label and dominate everything, just like patriarchy. Go back to your "little holy churches" this is the GAY GHETTO, you know?!! that you yourselves threw us into just to segregate us. Who is a hypocrite now?

I disagree grindr should allow them. Maybe even add a Femdomme option. For not really attracted to guys. But love me trans woman and dom females and will bottom for them all day.

Trans females are females. And even men who identify as queer enjoy “female” company. Otherwise, as a trans man, I wouldn’t have so many cis men in my dms verbally assaulting me in hopes to treat me like a woman

Couldn’t agree more! I do not want to see that crap either

It is somewhat annoying to have a female hit you up on a gay app.that is predominantly for men.. If I am on the app. I am looking for guys only.??

Fuck you, man.

I've done this stuff and it's easy to create secondary or further filters. An example would be...

1. Sex at birth
Male
Female
Intersex
(Please can we avoid gender politics)

This then enables further options such as

1a. Looking for
Male
Female
Trans
Male and female couple / group
Male couple / group
etc. etc.

1b That are
Gay
Bisexual
Straight
Trans

2. For
1:1 Relationship
Friendship
Hookup Now
Hookup Later
Group Now (Male Only)
Group Now or Later (Mixed)

Make each answer available dependant on the previous.

I'd also like to see a more expansive list of vaccinations to include
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
MMR
TB
Other (Specify)

These options could be determined by a survey sent to all members with the most popular in each added as a potential answer.

You can please some of the people... Just an Idea and something that you could use to filter in/out more specifically.

ok sweetie, now stop crying and making your drama, you can still find your pussies and couple play out there. zzzz

Keep female profiles i like being able to find men women and trans man and trans woman your doing just fine grinder keep up the good work your app is loved 100% by me

Grinder keep the app just the way it is i love it it's a great app I love it so much
