Bumble’s Inclusive Gender Identity Options

Here Are Bumble’s Inclusive Gender Identity Options

At Bumble, we’re dedicated to creating an app that’s as inclusive as possible for our community. We’re constantly seeking new ways to make sure your experience is both positive and empowering.

We partnered with the experts at GLAAD, a media advocacy organization advancing lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) acceptance, to better provide a space that allows everyone across the gender spectrum to feel safe and seen. With GLAAD's guidance, people can now share more about their gender identities and sexual orientations, enabling them to better convey themselves in ways that best indicate who they are. Whether you’re brand new to Bumble and just setting up an account, or you’ve used our app before but wish to expand about who you are, how you show up is up to you.

You’ll get there.” When I reaffirmed my bisexuality, letting them know that this isn’t a pitstop, but a final destination, they’d respond, “I recognize you think that. I did too.” 

So I stopped telling people I was bisexual, at least on the first date. It wasn’t that I was ashamed of being attracted to all genders or attempting to hide my bisexuality. I hoped that if they got to understand and trust me, they would feel I was bisexual. I also figured i
