Xander is pretty awful throughout seasons 1- 3. He is a total Nice Guy and says a lot of shitty stuff that the show doesn't call him on. And I think that's what pisses me off the most. The show wants us to sympathize with him and never presents his attitude and actions as wrong. I think Xander's best season is season 4. He's alright in season 5 too. But... season 6. No. Not only with the leaving Anya at the altar BS and then thinking he can police her future relationships (fuck off Xander, you don't own Anya and she can fuck Spike if she wants), but also with him telling Dawn about Spike's attempted rape of Buffy. NO. YOU DO NOT GET TO DO THAT, XANDER HARRIS. That is Buffy's information to share to or not share with whom she chooses.

Yeah I totally agree with these criticisms, I just don't like how everyone hates on him when many other characters have done a lot of shit just as bad (or worse) than the things he did. He's done shitty stuff for sure but I don't see anything uniquely shitty, in quantity or intensity, about the shitty stuff he's done. And a lot of discussions have given me the uncomfortable sense that people pick on him disproportionately because he's not as badass or powerful as the others, and god forbid a male character be less badass or powerful than the female characters.

Also, maybe it's just a personal issue of mine, but I have never been able to understand hate thrown at teenagers for acting like immature selfish jerks when that's pretty much what most rl teenagers are. I guess it's a kind of suspension of disbelief issue: I just have a hard time taking the "dude, they're freaking kids!" goggles off.
