AND THEN THEY CAME FOR THE STONEWALL RIOTERS, BUT I WAS NOT A STONEWALL RIOTER, SO I ...


LGBT hook-up app Grindr is accused of discriminating against GAYS by Stonewall riots hero: Will let users search specifically for transgender men or women – but not biological males because that’s ‘transphobic’

Gay hook-up app Grindr has been blasted by a Stonewall rioter for not letting users search specifically for biological men and claiming that doing so is transphobic.

But Grindr, which is largely used by gay men, does let users search specifically for transgender users, claiming that it is ‘critical for this community to be able to find each other easily.’ 

The policy has angered veteran gay rights activist Fred Sargeant, who rioted at Stonewall in 1969 and others who say it’s hypocritical. 

The app, which is run by George Arison, a conservative gay man, claims that allowing users to filter out transgender users would ‘further perpetuate discrimination and harm for the trans and non binary community.’
