Sinakhone Keodara reached his breaking point last July. Loading up Grindr, the gay dating app that presents users with potential mates in close geographical proximity to them, the founder of a Los Angeles-based Asian television streaming service came across the profile of an elderly white man. He struck up a conversation, and received a three-word response: “Asian, ew gross.”
He is now considering suing Grindr for racial discrimination. For black and ethnic minority singletons, dipping a toe into the water of dating apps can involve subjecting yourself to racist abuse and crass intolerance.
“Over the years I’ve had some pretty harrowing experiences,” says Keodara. “You run across these profiles that say ‘no Asians’ or ‘I’m not attracted to Asians’. Seeing that all the time is grating; it affects your self-esteem.”
Style blogger Stephanie Yeboah faces the same struggles. “It’s really, really rubbish,” she explains. She’s faced messages that use words implying she – a black woman – is aggressive, animalistic, or hypersexualised. “There’s this assumption that black women – especially if plus sized – go along the dominatrix line.”
As a result, Yeboah went through phases of deleting then reinstalling many dating apps, and now doesn’t use them any more. “I don’t see any point,” she says.

If I was dating, it would be white guys. Anybody has a problem with my preference can go pound sand.
No...A court will decide FOR you who you can date, or even if you're a hetero or homo.
Legal discrimination in every sphere of your life.
Food, cars, housing, jobs etc
Not the goobermints business.
Anything else is tyranny.
Grindr is a “dating” app. Right.
Anyone who knows asian people, especially if they were born in asia... can tell you that most are far more discriminatory against other races and other types of asians than white people would ever be. But most save an extra special disdain for blacks, Mexicans and middle easterners.
“It’s going to get to the point where you have to sodomize someone in public or let them sodomize you to prove you aren’t homophobic.”
I’ll choose being homophobic every time.
Yes,mates...you know,what dogs do!
No fat chicks!
They do the acts they do but “ew Asians are gross?”
Whatever.
I’m still amused by the guy who was a trans woman, ranting that men who refused to date him were bigots. Our world has gone completely, totally insane.
You’re either attracted to certain physical characteristics or you’re not.
You can’t legislate sexual interest.
I have no doubt the Left is willing to give it a try, however.
But Keodara doesn’t want to date women.
Doesn’t that make him a sexist?
Or fat people.
Or ugly people.
Or old people for that matter.
Back to the routing program...enter into settings your own ethnic group. Add the option to avoid areas populated by groups with strong opposition to your group. Find a route that avoids the potential hazard. It might save an unnecessary beating.
It was a concept that was never incorporated. The politically correct would never allow it.
F’n lawyers and judges will take on any case nowadays.
