Why is it people bash Sakura for not potraying a good image for females due to her relationship with Sasuke, but people act like Sasuke wasn't the one who attempted to kill her twice and murder Karin.

So Sakura gets bashed for being abused but Sasuke gets away with doing it?

Because unlike Sasuke, Sakura is not a very likable character for most people. Simple.

I am pretty sure Sasuke made it pretty clear he did not wanna be with her in this series. While Sakura kept chasing after him after all he did. If anything you should be mad at Sakura for not having respect for herself.

So being ''likeable'' instantly excuses him for being a petty woman beater?

So if a persistent girl wanted to start a relationship you would choke her and attempt murder?

that would be true, if Sasuke didn't end up marrying Sakura and having a kid with her anyway :kk:

You're not following. The point is that in the eyes of people you are talking about, Sasuke is a solid, well written character all in all, whereas Sakura is not. That's the direct answer to your question in the OP, as in 'why is Sakura getting bashed for something if Sasuke doesn't'. You're trying to use character traits and qualities as the determining factor, whereas it's clearly not the case. People don't really bash Sakura for being 'this' and 'that', they bash her for being an overall poorly written and illogical character.

For instance, I don't need some character to be a Jesus, a Superman or another ideal good guy for me to like him/her. If the character is well written, logical and has the necessary depth, I couldn't care less about his deeds.

Oh, ok I get your point thanks. I still find it hypocritical when a Sasuke fan calls Sakura a bad role model.

not sure if serious, he is not a woman beater. blame your fave for being stupid enough to go there on her own and try to kill him? guess you forgot that. oh wait sasuke should open his arms wide for someone who had a kunai at his back? lol get outta here with this nonsense. its a shinobi world, you want to kill, you better well be prepared to get killed in return

Because shes useless and showed no talent. Kabuto was a better healer, naruto and susake could smash rocks the same way, hell any jounin could with a jutsu.
We all wanted karin to be the mother rather than sakura because sakura has a no named clan and could not breed a mini sage baby.

If she is trying to kill me I have every right to defend myself. Sakura in that instance tried to kill Sasuke. Sasuke only did what any person would do.

that would be true, if Sasuke didn't end up marrying Sakura and having a kid with her anyway :kk:

While this is true I feel that Sasuke before than had made it clear where he stands in this relationship. I feel he gave more respect to himself than Sakura. Thats why a little part of Gaiden won't truly kill off his character. Where as with Sakura you cannot say the same since she persisted on being with him after all he did. At this point in time anyone can think Sasuke got with Sakura out of pitty. While you can't say the same with Sakura here.

Because she's a complete idiot, who still spread her legs for Sasuke after what he did. Sakura has no self-respect and that is where she fails with a character among other reasons. She fails completely as a main heroine thanks to their garbage relationship and Kishi himself. That is why people dislike her within the fanbase.

Sakura's feats deserve credit, but her personality and character traits negatively effects her in the spotlight. She is a perfect example of how to fail when it comes down to developing a main heroine in a story.

Actually in all those instances Sakura attempted to kill him first. Sasuke did not hurt her without a reason. The only form of abuse he gave was through verbally. Which should have indicated he was never interested.

Sasuke fans will defend anything sasuke does, no logical fan backs up any of his psychotic episodes.

Actually, that is not true due to the fact that Sakura hesitated and did not go in for the kill. Try again.

Sasuke didn't go for the kill either. Actually, neither of them had killing intent.

I agree 100%.When it came to Sasuke, Sakura was naive and stupid. It even affected her relationship with her friends, including Naruto in a negative spotlight.
