They want her to be what they want her to be, and often cannot accept she is who she is.

ITs "headcanon" stuff, we tend to ignore it.

If you truly love a character, you love them for who they are and should not have to re-write it to suit your means. If not you do not love the character for whom they are, you love the version you made, the OOC version. There are so many blanks in her bio, so you have room for other options without changing the gender.

I sort of feel a bit of it is the transgenders are not represented within Vocaloid, a similar thing occurs with the dark skinned fans, hence why Merli got a lot of fans. Such fandom reactions rarely last and I barely see anyone praising Merli these days. They don't actually like the character itself.
