What ๐Ÿงšโ€โ™‚๏ธ means

A male fairy with wings, used for magical folk like Puck and Oberon, and for whimsy in general.

It appears in fantasy and Shakespeare talk, cosplay, and playful messages that sprinkle good wishes. Some gay men use it in a self-aware, camp way.

โ€œFairyโ€ has a history as an insult for gay men. Some reclaim it, but sending it to mock someone reads as a slur.
