Cersei and Jaime were both raised by an abusive father. If that's a reason for Cersei to be fucked up, that's a reason for Jaime to be fucked up. And if Cersei had to deal with being married to a shit, Jaime had to deal with being widely reviled for killing a tyrannical murderous tyrant who was fighting in open warfare against his father. I think that Cersei probably has more reasons for being fucked up, due to as you say women have it bad in ASOIAF-land, but they both have plenty of reasons for being fucked up.

Jaime was their father's favorite, so while he certainly got some of the abuse, he didn't have it anywhere near as bad as Cersei or Tyrion did.

And frankly, Jaime did deserve some of the flack he got since he didn't just "kill" Aerys, he murdered him. He had his reasons, certainly, but there were better ways to go about it (and plenty of other people who could have done it). At least, given the morals of that particular world, a kingsguard murdering his own king was a bad thing, even if Aerys needed to die.

And even so, being hated for actions that in the morals of the world were wrong is not remotely comparable to the way Robert treated Cersei.

Please point out who else in the room was going to murder Aerys before he blew up the city? Because there was NOT ONE PERSON making a move to do that but Jaime.

I actually think Jaime has flaws, but dude, this is NOT something you can tear him down for. It was an impossible situation, and if he had not done it, no one else would have and everyone would have died.
