Putting aside pronouns in particular and given hypotheticals were a user doesn't care one way or the other about specific pronouns as long as they know the person they swipe on is identity-compatible as a dating partner:

Wouldn't it be beneficial, prior to fine-grained filtering, to start with the widest group that meets minimally sufficient criteria? That way the end group of people who meet a very aggressive and specific filtering has more options. Sure, beyond a certain size it's too unwieldy, but each user may want to min/max for different values of wieldy(ness?).

Keep in mind I know absolutely nothing about modern dating or dating apps, and it seems things move too fast for even a person coming out of a 5+ year relationship to look at the current crop of temporary/permanent mate-finding tools and really know what they're getting into.
