I joined Grindr with the hope of meeting other cis gay guys to maybe make friends or something more, but I continuously am bombarded by women and trans people. It's extremely frustrating. I would like for Grindr to go back to its roots as a platform for cis gay men only. This is a platform that's supposed to be for cis gay men only, but Grindr feels it needs to bow down to society and be "all inclusive". This effectively squashes Grindr's status as a platform and safe space specifically for cis gay men and allows for us to be preyed on by those who wish to turn us straight or fetishize us. Why not create different branches of Grindr, like a Grindr for Bisexuals, a Grindr for Women, a Grindr for Trans, a Grindr for Non-Binary, etc.? That's the more appropriate option than letting us be victims of malicious people, all in the name of "inclusion". The developers/creators have essentially put Grindr in the toilet, which is a shame because it's a great app (bot accounts, ads, and the occasional escort solicitation aside). Please take Grindr back to its roots as a platform for cis gay men only.

There seriously needs to be an optional means of filtering out the Transgendered, the female and the non-gays.

This is primarily a gay dating site but that is not the point. The majority of use are males who are looking for males but that too is not the point.

The point is not quite that in bygone years virtually all of those using Grindr were gay male but now a very high percentage are in either varying degrees of non-gay or non-male mode, but that we are limited to only being able to view the nearest 100 or 600 profiles with the result that those who are not strictly gay are crowding out significant proportions of our entitlement. Being able to filter out those who are not man-to-man would right this anomaly without affect the Trans or their fanciers.

I would like for Grindr to implement stricter verification for new and existing users in an effort to combat underage individuals posing as adults, bots, etc. I've heard a number of stories of men who have chatted with individuals who they thought were of legal age, only to find out upon meeting them that they're some horny teen. I'm proposing the implementation of verification measures such as ID (Government issued, driver's license, passport, etc), bank account, submitting a facial selfie with a piece of paper visible displaying a verification code, email verification, as well as changing the age requirements to make it so users must be 21 or older to join Grindr. If this is implemented, I'm hoping this sparks a new trend across the internet where sites implement strict verification measurements in an effort to keep minors off the internet.

I'd also like for all new and existing profiles be required to have face pictures of the user with a verification code displayed, with failure to do so resulting in immediate account termination. It should also be a requirement for both new and existing members to fill out their profiles as well

I hope you guys can make id verification complusory in some countries for our own safety, in middle east there are many causes of people that were blackmailed and threatened to get their sexuality exposed to their relatives by fake straight people which asked them to pay money for not doing thag , i really hope you can consider that not all countries have protective laws and that in many of them you might be punished for being gay so id verification will make everything safer because it will be harder for fraudulents to register and also will limit them from making more accounts as they won't be able to use the same id incase they were proven to be crooks

Back in 2009, one of the original Grindr rules was that you had to be of age (usually 18) and male. MALE! What’s a male? Ohhh my goodness how could Grindr be so exclusive! Isn’t it ironic how a woke ignorant culture of insanely evolving political correctness is eroding even the most basic, common sense thoughts about what a dick for dick means. I’m beyond fed up with trying to pacify everyone’s ever changing rules. Cos, sis, tranny intersect purple blue and hamsters. Oh and while we are are it, where are the lesbians and men seeking women, (penis for vagina as observed at birth)? I hate Grindr, it’s owned or was owned by a Chinese firm which was a problem for Tik Tok so just use scruff. The dudes are dudes (have a penis observed at birth) and are way hotter because they have common sense. FukGrndr who will censor the f out of my beliefs!
