Why is Mercy so popular with gay men?

I am a same-sex attracted man and main Mercy.
I was thinking about why she has such a huge gay monitoring, and then it struck me. You get to soar around like a fairy with a magical fairy wand sprinkling fairy dust everywhere. She appeals to the queer desire to be a fairy.
I treasure playing her so much.

Myths About Gay Men + Monogamy
There is a widespread myth that gay men don&#;t want or can&#;t have monogamous long word relationships. The truth about half of us undertake want them. And in our own research, about 70% of couples are in long term, monogamous relationships. I think on the coasts and in big cities, there&#;s this belief that somehow there&#;s something wrong with you if you want a monogamous relationship. But the truth is, they&#;re very common.

What Gay Men Should Expect in a Relationship
Some gay men place up with a lot in their relationships. Their long-term partners will aggressively flirt with other men in front of them, go home with a guy from the bar without any forewarning, sleep with ex-lovers without gaining consent from their current lover, or brag to their current boyfriends about the quality of their sex with strangers. Ouch.
Here&#;s what I find most concerning. Some gay men don&#;t feel they have a right to be upset about these behaviors. They&#;ll ask me why they feel so jealous and how can I help them let go of their insecurity. They think that the same-sex attracted community believes in sexual autonomy and it isn&#;t cool or manly to object to their partner&#;s sexual behavior.

Every same-sex attracted man I’ve seen in my practice over the years has had a conflicted, troubled relationship with his own masculinity, often shaping his behavior in destructive ways. Writing for Vice, Jeff Leavell captures the dynamic nicely: “Queer people, especially gay men, are known for dealing with a slew of self-doubts and anxieties in noxious ways. Gay men are liable to perceive incredibly insecure over their masculinity, a kind of internalized homophobia that leads them to idolize 'masc 4 masc', 'gaybros' and [to] shame and oppress femme men.”
Here we spot one of the most common defenses against shame: getting rid of it by offloading or projecting it onto somebody else; in this case, one
