I feel like the way people treat some pairings that don't work out is a bit out of hand.
Especially with the Erin's treatment toward the she-cat; Dovewing, Nightcloud, Heathertail, Squirrelflight, etc. And how the fandom treats them following that. I've noticed that the majority almost always favors the male, excusing their behavior. Honestly why is that?? How can we treat situations equally when more than half of the time the female gets saddled with all the blame?
Bumblestripe was overly clingy and didn't notice how he'd sometimes make Dovewing uncomfortable.
Tigerheart never took his relationship with Dovewing seriously, and used her as a stress reliever.
Crowfeather neglected both Nightcloud and Breezepelt, using them to make himself look good.
Lionblaze attacked Heathertail based off assumptions, and hypocritically stole from WindClan later on.
Ashfur threw Squirrelflight's friendship in her face, and tried to kill several of her family members.
Imo, in more than a couple of situations, the male in the situation is usually where the problem stems from. I'm not saying I only blame the male, yes I partly blame the she-cat too, but in a lot of situations, drama could have been avoided.

I never cared for Lion x Heather, though in his defense, he stole the catmint for his Clan if that's what you're referring to and Jayfeather wouldn't stop requesting him to do it either to the point of pretty much guilt-tripping him at one point.
But anyway, I agree. It does get annoying when people hate on just one side of a ship, especially if both sides turn out to be at fault.
When did Tigerheart use Dovewing as a stress reliever though?

I only favor Crowfeather more because I can understand why he did the things he did unlike Nightcloud, who just appeared to do it out of desperation and obsession. At the same time, I do blame both for how things happened. The others, I'm on the she-cat's side typically.

It never directly states in the books that Tigerheart used Dovewing as a stress reliever. It's believed because he didn't commit to the relationship like Dovewing did and after all, I'd say it's very stressful to spy for your Clan. We'll find out, I'm sure, in the new SE how he felt. I don't usually see the females being blamed? There's a lot of people who hate on both Tigerheart and Dovewing. Ashfur gets a lot of hate as well.

I never saw him as using Dovewing as a stress reliever, but yeah, I do get what you mean. And there are tons of people who hate on the females more than they do on the males, but for some of them, it's mostly on other sites.

To me, it seems like a lot of the drama between couples is dragged out way longer than it should be.
I'm glad some couples talk about their problems though (like Fire x Sand for example) and then it's over and done with.

Ironically, I'm neutral on Sand x Fire, but man am I glad what ever problems they had, wasn't that big, and stopped after the first series. If they dragged it out, I'd probably chuck my book.
