Yes. Grindr already in it’s self, based on your area can be a space for a lot of non minorities which can make it harder finding a decent and genuine connection with someone as a minority. Most times those non-minorities have an ethnicity preference of themselves… typically their own kind unless they are fetishizing those outside of their race or genuinely open to meeting all kinds of people. Initially Grindr getting rid of the ethnicity filter is more of an advantage for non-minorities as they are able to source one another easily based on the fact they are usually grouped together largely in common areas. Making the whole Grindr explore page solely just consist of them. While those select few minorities within those spaces can’t search for others like themself or others period due to those other pages being too spread out and not appearing on the explore page since the non-minorities filled all the spaces. Generally speaking for instance when people are asked “their” type they are quick to usually come with an answer that somewhat foreshadows race. For instance if someone’s type is blondes > that is a clear indication of attraction or preferences towards white. Or say Someone’s type is “dread heads” that is a clear indication their type is steering towards black. Over all I give that example to say if this is genuinely an example how people address their interest towards people based off phenotype and features that are only and most times naturally present based on race then an ethnicity filter in that case would not be racist since it would validate the fact that a lot of peoples “type” can and subconsciously can go by race. Which I feel as though I as a minority should and cannot deem that as racist because with or without the filter people are going to still like what they like, just with the filter people will access what they like easier and quicker with out having to waste tons of time. I feel as though prior to getting rid of the ethnicity filter i Grindr should have hosted a vote to ask minorities rather or not they found it to be racist and continue to either proceed with us having that filter based on the saying
