I would argue that it was designed to emasculate a presumed male user for not selecting a tag, which probably was never good, and is definitely not good now.
Pasta Streamer
Spaghetti King
Itchy Walrus 'stache
The first two are based on one of staygold's early GWJ Twitch streams which was a cooking show. I *think* it was about spaghetti/pasta, but I'm not 100% sure anymore.
And the walrus...well, he didn't look to comfy with his mustache during the latest video conference call.
The use of the tag "fairy princess" was, as UpToIsomorphism said, used to shame someone into picking a tag.
In hindsight, it is hella inappropriate and quite insulting. While it was a tradition, sometimes, like Old Yeller, traditions need to be taken out behind the woodshed and shot.
There are so many good tag options! Thank you all for suggesting! I'll go reverse order from almost picked it to absolutely THE ONE
Honourable Mentions:
Ponyboy - I like it but it's the third of the triple references in my username so unfortunately didn't make the cut
Three Time CC Content Warning Champ - I'm surprised you think it'll stop at three

Can we find something equally as insulting but less gendered? I'm all for tradition, but we can do better.

I don't see it at all as an insulting title, but your point about needless gendering still stands. Apologies.

I'm pretty sure someone actually picked it for their tag, too.
