    I have been against this decision ever since they made it. It was done at a time when everyone was jumping on the anti-racism bandwagon.

    The problem isn't the people searching for a specific race through the filters. People like what they like, whether it's a specific age, wt, ht, or yes, race.

    This decision should not have been made unilaterally by Grindr. People who feel the ethnicity filter was racist could easily have opted out on their end by not listing their ethnicity on their OWN profile. That way their profile would not be shown to guys using an ethnicity filter. Don't want to be searched by a specific trait? Then don't list it on your profile and it can't be used to show your profile when someone searches using that filter.

    As the complaints about this Grindr decision gets closer to 5,000 without a reversal or even a comment or statement, it is indicative that they don't want to admit they made a hasty & wrong decision based on what was happening at the moment. The fact that they removed the ethnicity filter does not make them high and mighty supporters of anti-racism anymore than using the filter makes people a racist.

    Your paying customers want the filter back. It's time you should make that happen.
