Please tell me why people call gays as Mary
When I look Two Broken Girls, Max call a big gay guy as big Mary. I knew that there was a girl, Mary Danielle Lambert, who is a lesbin and she contributed to gay people. Is she the reason why Mary present gay? And does the "Mary" also means the people who fight for gay people?

p.s. I have no bias about gay, I just want to figure the phrase out. If it bothers someone, I do apologize for that!

I will really appreciate it, if you can answer my question!

Hi,Yolanda
I google it. The woman who named Mary Danielle Lambert is likely a singer not a lesbian.
Here is the introduction.
