1) She's a HYPOCRITE! I used to like the fact that Robin stood up for her convictions and was truthful; but ever
    since she decided to participate in the Baby Michael Fraud, I have NO RESPECT for her. How can I think of
    her as ''nice'' when she's helping to keep a man away from his son?

    2) She's BLIND. This one I have less trouble with (hey, if she wants to live her life in fear of the next car
    bombing, that's her business). She chooses to delude herself into the thinking that what Jason does isn't who he is.
    HELLO! I'm an editor, and while it's not the same thing as ordering deaths or laundering money, I can tell you
    right now it has an impact on who I am. My job doesn't define me, but I do read everything a little bit differently
    than I did before I started it.
 

From: QM

These are the reasons I hate Robin. Please take note, and copy them down, because I don't want to have to
    repeat them again.

    The reasons are as follows:

    1. She is a hypocrite.
    2. She is portrayed as Port Charles' sweetheart.
    3. She is portrayed as quite perfect.
    4. She is moralistic and holier than thou.
    5. She is irritating in word, thought, and deed.

    Let's start with #1.

    She is Ms. High and Mighty Moral Society. She believes that people should behave in a certain way, and that if
    you act outside of that way, you are morally wrong. She is willing to still care about you if you step outside of the
    holy light of Robin's Personal Path to Heaven, but you're still wrong.

    Unless you're Carly Roberts.

    Carly is evil because she lies, schemes, cheats, steals, drugs innocent
    Quartermaines, sleeps with more than two people in a three year period...

    So Robin hates her. Fine.

    EXCEPT that:

    Jason lies, cheats, steals and kills innocent people. He's an extortionist, a racketeer, a murderer, a thief, an amoral
    human being.

    But that's all ok, and excusable, because she WUVS him. Nevermind HOW she fell in love with such a man,
    that's just the way it is.

    See, that's hypocritical.
 

    Now, #2.

    She is portrayed as PC's sweetheart.

    She knows and loves everyone in Port Charles, regardless of how tenuous her connection to them, or how many
    times they've actually seen each other. And, of course, everyone loves her, because she is St. Robin, Virgin
    Queen of Port Charles.

    This is irritating as hell, because there's no reason for ANYONE to be this loved .

    #3: Little Ms. Perfect.

    Little Ms. Perfect has everything. Conveniently enough, she has several trust funds coming out of every orifice of
    her body, so she never actually HAS to work. Little Ms. Perfect is conveniently intelligent enough to get into
    Yale, and the Sorbonne (though she drops them both for PCU and the Mob). Little Ms. Perfect lives her life just
    right, never doing anything wrong herself, never lying, never cheating, never stealing, never smoking, never
    drinking, never doing anything at all. Little Ms. Perfect had sex with her boyfriend and contracted HIV, but,
    miraculously, has this wonderful protocol (payed by her wonderful trust funds) that
    a) causes no side efffects
    b) we never see her take
    c) makes her have absolutely NO symptoms of HIV at all!
    Little Ms. Perfect never has to have her T-Cells counted, because her HIV is Perfect HIV, that never destroys
    her T-Cells. Little Ms. Perfect only has sex for love, and for no other reason, and, because she IS so perfect, is
    able to protect her current boyfriend from the deadly HIV
    virus, even though it's been proven that contraception is FAR from 100%
    effective.

    #4: Moralistic.

    Not ONLY is Robin gifted with the moral insight of any congregation of believers anywhere, she knows what's
    best for everyone, too! She offers unsolicited advice, free of charge, on any subject, and people drool all over
    themselves to take it! Of course, those that don't take it are repentant, and if they don't, why, they must be PURE
    EVIL!

    And finally:

    She is irritating in Word, Thought, and Deed.

    Enough said.

    QM
    I hate Robin, and I've justified it enough.
 
 

From: Allyn

Robin is a lying little two-faced HYPOCRITE who dispenses often conflicting advice to **everyone** (whether
    they want it or not) but fails to take *any* action regarding her own life!

    I have made this analogy before but here it is again -- Robin acts just like Dana Carvey's ''Church Lady'' from
    Saturday Night Live. She thinks she knows better than everyone how they should best live their lives. No one can
    *hope* to come up to to her standard of 'goodness' but that's ok because she will condescendingly 'forgive' them
    their trespasses (after pointing out each and every mis-step). She never even stops to **consider** that her life,
    actions and values are anything less than completely true, right and correct.
 

    I find precious little ''goodness'' left in Robin these days. Her assinine actions hurt all the people who love her -
    Mac, Felicia, Jason, Alan (who loves her like a daughter), Tony, Brenda, Jax, the list goes on and on. And it isn't
    even like she's trying to make peace between everyone. She takes whatever stand is most hurtful to the person
    she is talking to. She tells Mac she will never leave Jason. She tells Jason she will always love Mac. She
    condescends to go to Felicia's for dinner even though she knows the plan is doomed from the start. She moves in
    with Brenda when Brenda is recovering from a breakdown percipitated by Sonny and Jason but Robin insists on
    letting Jason call her there and always talks about how wonderful Jason is to Brenda and Jax (who both have
    pretty reasonable reasons for hating his guts!). And, of course, the most horrendous sin as far as I'm concerned,
    she is *actively* snarky, evil and decietful to the Quartermaines who have always loved her!

    Now explain to me again why you think she's a *good* character?!

From: queen of darkness

What the hell was that line? She was sitting on the couch with Jason today and said words to that effect; excuse
    me, dearie, do you even REALIZE that a man DIED? That Renaldo, that gorgoeous hunk of tragically underused
    flesh who you saw every day of your life, the man who stood outside that door and protected you, GAVE HIS
    LIFE for you and your little brain-dead boy toy? It's NOT okay, Robin. A man is dead - do you care? Does that
    even *change* anything for you? Does that give you any pause? If not for Jason's superman-like vision, spotting
    that device on the tire, you would be the Slobbin Supreme Pizza Special tonight. And what if some of the glass
    from the exploding car had cut both you and Jason, exposing him to your HIV-infected blood? What about that,
    Robin? No, you just insist on covering your ears and singing loudly, ''Lalalala, I can't hear you, lalalalala...'',
    despite all of the common-sense statements tossed your way.
 
 

From: Shepster

Why I don't like Robin.
    Why I ''bash,'' ''insult'' ''criticize'' Robin, whatever you want to call it.

    Here it is.
    Read very closely.
    Are y'all with me?
    I've said this exact same thing on this exact same board before. So here we go again.

    The reason I don't like Robin is because I don't like Robin.

    There's no need for explanations, no need for long-winded discussions about why I feel the need to make fun of
    this FICTIONAL character, or debates about why she inspires so much venom.

    I don't like to see Robin on my television screen. I fast-forward through Robin. She annoys me. I avoid watching
    scenes with Robin in them.
    I just don't like Robin.

    I don't have to justify my dislike of Robin to anyone. If I want to make fun of a FICTIONAL character that I
    don't like, I will. If for some strange reason, I didn't like Holden Caufield in Catcher in the Rye, I'd be perfectly
    within my right to ''bash'' and/or make fun of him. If I didn't like Juliet in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, it's my
    prerogative to say so. It's called criticism, and it's a perfectly acceptable practice.

    So we get a little feisty. So we have Anti-Robin Day, and Anti-Robin Keeperships, and the Anti-Robin song
    (OK, that was me, LOL!) So? She's not real. Robin does not exist. Robin no existe!!! Criticism of this
    FICTIONAL character is stimulating, challenging and fun. At least for me!

    And I for one, have already started thinking up some new Anti-Robin keeperships. After all, Thursday's right
    around the corner!

    I'm one of those people who ''grew up with Robin''. I loved her with Stone (is that a requirement for being a GH
    fan or something? LOL), I loved her and Jason the first time around...yadda, yadda, yadda.

    But I CANNOT stand her now! I don't feel the need to justify why she annoys me, she just does. She is no
    longer the Robin I watched grow up or watched fall in love with both Stone and Jason. This Robin has an ability
    to justify things she once stood firmly against. And while I appreciate hypocrits if that is their purpose in the story,
    Robin's purpose is simply to change drastically to fit into whatever mold seems right at the time. There is no
    consistancy of character, so how can I like the character? Even if I enjoyed her one day, the next she'd contradict
    herself all over again. She's just not worth my time anymore.

From: ReDarc

Robin is a character that I have never ever liked  From the beginning. Every time she squeaked about all of her Godfathers, I wanted to put my hand through the
    TV & strangle her. Now that she's grown up, nothing in my mind has changed about this character & I doubt it
    will. Thank You Andy.
 

From: RStortz

Hmm...let's see...I actually liked Robin as a little girl and during the Stone days but this pod slobbin is the one I
    detest. Let me count the ways: She is a hypocrite(everyone is expected to bow, scrape and worship her and live
    by her standards of perfection). If she doesn't like you(never mind if their is a reason for it) she will either :ignore
    you alltogether like she did with Moreno, trash you to Jason and whomever will listen or wine until she gets her
    way.....She is self centered, self involved, manipulative in a sneaky way, defensive if everyone doesn't think she is
    perfect and just plain stupid! There is more but I don't want to put everyone to sleep.
    If I have to continue to see her four times a week I'm going to be ff most of the show!

From: Wishbone

but here's why I don't like Robin in case you want to add this.

    1.)She's boring-this is the very reason I first began to detest Robin, I can not think of one single thing she has ever
    done that has entertained me for even one scene. I admit though that I do enjoy making fun of her.

    2.)She's completely morally pure-unless it doesn't suit her purposes. She has no problem defending, living with,
    or even sleeping with mobsters- and Robin may not realize this, but mobsters are thugs, racketeers, thiefs,
    murderers, and just all around bad people.
    She had no problem using her boyfriend's best friend to get her boyfriend fired.
    And not only has she perpetuated the lie of Michael being Jason's son she has repeatedly told A.J. to stay away
    from Michael because in her morally pure judgement, she has decided that Jason is a better father (we won't
    mention that A.J. never had the chance to be a Dad).
    And furthermore when Michael's mother, a woman who Robin hates and hates Robin, a woman whom Robin
    knows doesn't want her near her child, is sent to a mental institution, Robin steps in and begins to Mother the
    child saying things like ''I have a child who needs me'' and then asking for pictures, taking that child with her to the
    park, to visit her friends, etc.
    She has no problem defending Tony for kidnapping Michael, she just blames it all on Carly. And then after Tony
    says that he will try and kidnap Michael again, Robin not only manages to keep her mobster boyfriend from
    killing Tony, she doesn't mention the fact that Tony may take Michael again at any moment to anyone.

    3.) Now this is all fine and dandy, except that no one realizes just how horrible of a person she is. Everyone
    needs to protect her no matter what.
    It isn't until Robin's life is in danger that Mac really begins to try and take Jason down, the countless others that
    Jason has maimed/hurt/killed are of no importance in compared to the angel that Robin is.
    Nikolas makes the mistake of daring to say that adding Justice to his Uncle's defense team would make his Uncle
    even guiltier (nevermind that he got shot with a bullet meant for Jason). And somehow Nikolas ended up
    apologizing to Robin, who ''forgave'' him once he said that he was only concerned for her safety.
    Tony goes on a rampage at the nurses ball and begins telling off several Port Charles citizens, this is all fine and
    dandy until Tony god forbid, insults Jason. Never mind that all of what Tony says is true, how dare he insult
    Robin's mobster boyfriend.

    4.) And the worst part is that Robin doesn't know what a bad person she is.
    She has said that ''Jason has no concept of social justice''. HELLO???
    She has stated that ''She doesn't mold the truth''. Good Lord child, what the hell are you thinking.
    She has compared her Uncle's job as Police Commisioner and her parents job as WSB agents to that of Jason's
    job as head of the mob because they're both dangerous.
    And she believes that when people try to protect her from the danger of living with Jason that they are the ones
    who are wrong.

    5.) Robin is on all the time. She has no real story except to defend Jason and say that she loves him. Kimberly
    McCullough doesn't even have a contract, and yet she is easily on at least 3-4 days a week. She has more airtime
    defending Jason per week than Taggert, Dara, V., and Garcia combined. She has more scenes bonding with
    Nikolas per week than the entire Quartermaine family, and she has more scenes holding Michael per week than
    A.J. has had the entire year.
 
 

    Now that I've written my dissertation I think I'll give my fingers a rest. Loved the page.

    Okay, i hate Robin, because she doesnt Make any sense.

    Everything that comes out of her mouth contradicts herself. Firstly, she tells mac to butt out of her relationship
    with Jason, and that Mac has nothing to worry. And then she says that its okay for Jason to act repulsivily and
    violently to protect Robin and michael.

    HELLOooooooooooooo, i guess its okay then for Mac to act violently towards jason to protect Robin huh.

    does this character ever get any more stupider. Its like.... Jason's like ''lets have a pizza'', and Robin replies... ''oh
    i love you.''

    She is derranged, and she scares me. and her sleeping on kitchen tables isnt exactly environmentally friendly for
    the family. A family that she claims is jasons, and maybe hers but she knows its NOT! shes living a lie, and telling
    AJ, that Michael belongs with Jason. Huh???.

    Okay enough said. It seems like im mad, but i sersiously laugh. Its her stupidity that makes me laugh. and scenes
    like this, keep the Anti Robin posts goin.

    So i say... let TPTB make Robin stupid. We all need a good laugh.
 
 

From: BamaJan

    I've watched this show for over 30 years. And Robert Scorpio was and is my all time favorite character. When
    Robin was introduced as his daughter, I loved it and I loved her. I thought she was adorable. I loved how
    animated she was. I loved all the scenes with her and Anna, her and Robert. The three of them together. Her and
    Casey. There wasn't one part of her storyline or character that I didn't like. When they introduced the AIDS
    storyline with Stone, I was moved. I was sad about the whole thing, but it was a good bittersweet story. I grieved
    with her when he died and she learned she was HIV+ (although that fact depressed the hell out of me.)

    But then signs and hints of her future destruction as a moral character started to show. Her devotion to Sonny. I
    told myself that was only because they shared Stone. So it wasn't that farfetched that she felt a strong connection
    to the man. So I didn't dwell on it. It was understandable.

    When she reached out to Jason, I thought, ''This is perfect!'' Because I remembered how she used to have a
    crush on him (much like Emily with Nikolas now) but he only had eyes for Karen. I was glad he turned to her. I
    thought she would temper some of that anger. I thought Robin would be the bridge to integrating this new Jason
    with his family. Color me shocked when she sent him to Sonny!!!

    He finds a load of cash on that docks in which someone was killed over and her first instinct is to turn to a
    mobster? She's suspose to be a law abiding moral person and the police doens't occur to her? When Robin
    decided that taking a bag full of ill gotten money to a mobster was better than taking it to the police, (wasn't Mac
    the commissioner then?) that's when Robin started her downfall. That's when she first showed that she wasn't as
    moral as she would have people to think. But it still didn't turn me against her. I just thought, it was an isolated
    case of bad judgement.

    Then Jason joined the mob. At least Robin had the good sense to be worried about it. And when her living room
    got shot up and Jason was shot and bleeding, it was a wake up call for her. I cheered her decision that she
    couldn't live that mob life. Jason's ''job'' was a problem for her and she couldn't condone it. She went to Sonny
    and begged him to fire Jason. I didn't hold that against her. But Jason told her he loved the mob. He wouldn't
    leave it. He loved it. (Where she now gets the idea that Jason only took Sonny's place as a favor for Sonny is
    beyond me. Jason told her plainly how much he loved the power and the mob.) When they broke up, I thought
    good for her, Anna and Robert would be proud. (Anna loved Duke, but she didn't accept him in the mob. She
    sent his butt to prison, then she tried to help him out of the mob.)

    But Paris must have leeched out every moral she ever had. She finds out that Jason is helping Carly steal AJ's
    son. (Carly is the mother, but that doesn't give her the right to keep AJ out of his son's life.) He didn't do it
    because he thought AJ was unfit to be a father. He didn't do it because he thought AJ would harm the baby. He
    did it because a former sex partner asked him to. He helped ''kidnap'' a baby form his father, because a friend
    asked him to. He did it because he hated his family. His motives were not good. Robin learns the truth, but does
    she go to AJ? (Some will say ''it wasn't her secret to tell.'') If the secret was something that only affected Jason
    and Carly, if it didnt' affect anyone else, if it was a secret that was personal, just between them, then that
    argument might hold out. But that isn't the case. This lie does hurt many people and one of those people being
    hurt is the baby.) No she doesn't. Instead she tells AJ to his face that Micheal belongs with Jason. Why? Because
    Jason loves him? Does she think that AJ would love him less? AJ is being denied the truth. He is being denied
    that opprotunity to be a part of his son's life. Each day that passes is a day he will never get back. By keeping
    Jason and Carly's secret, Robin herself lies and abets the immoral act itself. Keeping a father from his child.

    But then Robin seems to think that isn't a big deal anyway. Tony kidnaps Micheal, does she call the police? Tony
    holds a shotgun on Jason, the so called love of her life, yet she still defends him in court? I guess the fact that
    Jason isn't Micheal's father and he is basically doing the same thing Tony did, only he got away with it, might have
    influenced her judgement here. She did say at one time, that Jason was doing the same thing as Tony and she was
    right. She would have been a hypocrit for naming Tony a kidnapper when she herself was aidding in another form
    of kidnapping, (maybe not a legal kidnapping, but a moral one, or is that immoral one?) So I let her defense of
    Tony slide. I didn't hold it against her because that was one of the few times when she choose not to be a
    hypocrit.

    But when she watched the Q's and passed judgement on them in her own self rightgious, judgemental way and
    walked up to AJ, looked him in the eye, told him he had no right to Micheal and he belongs with Jason, I literally
    wanted to slap her. How dare she!!!! How dare she say that to AJ, knowing (while AJ didn't) that he was
    Micheal's father!!!! That was the last straw for me. That was when Robin no longer held any moral traits. That is
    when Robin proved what a lying immoral hypocrit she really was. That is when Robin ''designed'' the truth. (I had
    to laugh when she told mac ''I don't design the truth, uncle Mac. You know me better than that.'' LOL since
    when, little twit?) Mac doens't know her at all! He still thinks she would never ever delibrately keep a father and
    son apart. (especially after she was kept from your own father until she was 6 years old and it hurt her,
    remember?? When she found Robert and Anna were her parents, she ran away. She hide in the hospital for
    weeks! She thought they didn't love her because Anna hid the truth from her, and Robert had never been apart
    of her life! She was extremely hurt and confused. Remember that pain? Now she would visit that sense of
    betrayal, that pain, on an innocent baby??? Who the hell is she kidding? She DOES design the truth! She designs
    it to fit her own selfish needs!) Mac would never think her capable of such a betrayal, of such deceit.

    Now she realizes that Jason is too important to her to give up. She decides that she loves him too much to let him
    go. So she is willing to accept him dispite the mob. (Too bad he doesn't love her as much.) Only we haven't seen
    it as DISPITE the mob. We have seen her completely embrace the mob. We don't see any conflict in her face,
    when Jason starts talking about retaliation. Instead we see Robin trouncing about town DEFENDING the mob.
    We see her act like she has no idea why having a MOBSTER'S lawyer would give anyone a bad impression. Or
    why being associated with Jason might not be good for one's career. We see her acting like anyone who sees
    Jason as a criminal is just plain stupid and out of their mind. We see her acting like Mac has no right to be
    worried about her. We see her downplay and ignore the dangers of her newly embraced life.

    The greatest marker on Robin's lack of morals, is her total disregard, lack of interest or compassion, or just
    human empathy, that a man died. She even made the comment that ''I'm okay, that's all that important.'' Well
    heck Robin! There's more people in the world than just you! A MAN DIED IN THE EXPLOSION!!!! And
    Robin DID NOT care. She even made bodyguard jokes the next day! The man who died was her bodyguard!

    Robin isn't the good all round moral person in PC. She has lost any morals she ever had. Robin is mob moll. She
    embraces and defends that life and the violence that goes with it. She is also supports, defends, aids and abets an
    immoral kidnapping of an innocent baby.

    But that wasn't the first time her complete insensitivety showed itself. When Brenda had her breakdown, all Robin
    could do was defend Sonny and Jason. She tried to invalidate Brenda's anger towards them. But Brenda had
    valid reasons to hate them both. They played a major part in Brenda's breakdown and Robin was OUT OF
    LINE to defend them to her, especially since Brenda was still emotionally fragile. Robin didn't have to agree with
    her, but couldn't she be a real friend and just let Brenda talk it out? Couldn't she just listen for once in her self
    rightgeous life? Apparently not.
 

    And last but not least, Robin continuously gives people advice. Now people say, but don't we all? When we see
    a friend doing something that is hurting them, or that is hurting other people, or they are walking into danger, don't
    we speak up and talk to them about it? But since Robin gets that smug, condescending, ''you don't know what
    you are talking about'' or ''You don't have a right to tell me that'' expression on her face, then she should keep her
    trap shut too. Robin gives advice, but heaven forbid if anyone points out how she is hurting herself, or how she is
    putting herself in danger, or (when the truth comes out.) how she is acting immoral.

    Robin is a lying, aidding and abetting kidnapper, sanctimoneous, self rightgious, hypocrit who pretends to be
    perfect and the world revolves around her because she is all knowing. That's why I no longer like Robin. That's
    why I hate her.
