This will allow users to see only who they are interested in and would prevent those they do not wish to be viewed by from seeing them. This would also mitigate hostile communication between different groups of people. This would allow users to tailor Grindr for their own intended use and would offer grinder a much broader demographic with which to do business. The argument that grinder is a "gay man's app" is moot, in that, a majority of the other dating sites out there were alienating the LGBT crowd and created a need for sites like Grindr's original model. Now, things have changed and more sites are respecting and including people of all walks of life. Grinder should do the same. Include everyone and Grindr will reap a greater benefit. I would think a group that has been ostracized and discriminated against for so long would be unconditionally accepting and tolerant of anyone who wants to be counted among them. I can see how str8 cis users who are LGBTQ allies would prefer to find each other on Grindr, rather than exclusionist sites. Great minds think alike and LGBTQs need all the allies we can get. I say roll out the red carpet for all walks of life and make it so each user can create their own environment inside Grindr. Further, not everyone only uses grinder for hookups. I can't tell how many profiles I have read were people State specifically that they are not looking for hookups. That would be another feature request.
Love you guys and gals!
