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.’
All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.
