Allison is by far one of the most frustrating characters in the show and she does very little that makes me want to like her as a person or even as a character. She is not and has never been her own person; she's constantly influenced by other people like Kate and Gerard and switches back and forth between the two "sides" drawn on the show. She's far too easily swayed- after making a big deal about her mother's death, all it took was to see what Gerard's intentions were to turn her "back" to who she was before. But wasn't it never really about Gerard, despite his influence? She wanted to kill Derek for biting her mother- how would Gerard's true intentions affect that supposed burning desire she felt to avenge her mother? Nothing she could ever do, nothing that had ever happened to her could excuse what she did to Erica and Boyd and nothing could warrant wanting to kill Derek so desperately. Matt was not forgiven, as Stiles so clearly explained to the guidance counselor; his difficult childhood did NOT excuse the fact that he, with the help of the Kanima, killed several people. Her mother's death and Matt's difficult childhood might not exactly align on the same lines of tragedy, but her mother's death does NOT excuse the fact that she attempted to kill people. I find no real purpose in her character, and I don't see why people are accusing those who dislike Allison of being sexist. It makes no sense whatsoever when it's beyond Allison's gender or the genders of other characters- it's her personality, her character traits that make her so unlikeable for those who dislike her.
