Sure. She has admitted she has a rivalry with her brother, but only because he lives an easy life and she can't stand it. Of the hand full of times they've been shown together in the comic, how many were her threatening to do harm to him? The majority that I can remember. If anyone has been toxic in the brother-sister relationship it's been her. Yeah, he's acted like a scum bag to women, but not to his sister. If anything, she needs to go have a long talk with her dad about how he treats women because her brother does the same.
How long did she fuck with Marten's mind while they were in a relationship? It finally took him having enough of it to break it off with her. She threatened Faye into going to therapy and it took Faye doing the same thing to get Dora to do it. Marigold is barely more then spank bank material to her since she acts more like a dirty old man around her then her own girlfriend. Lets face it, Faye is the only one really able to call her on her shit because Faye is the only one that could and would be more violent the Dora, but at least Faye has made an honest attempt (in the comics I've read) to fix her shit. Is Dora even going to therapy anymore?
I admit, it's only a comic character, but Dora is written in such a way that she can't stand it when other people are happy.

Dora snapped! And I have the perfect music for that! http://grooveshark.com/s/24hours+OPEN/4RscZg

Well, I did deal with my mother until she died, but I didn't love her. The emotion I felt when she died was relief, and the song that kept going through my head after she died was "Ding Dong The Witch is Dead."
Now for the comic. Today's comic took a direction I wasn't expecting.

--- Quote from: TheEvilDog on 24 Aug 2014, 19:34 ---I wouldn't call Dora toxic, she's someone who has not had the easiest path in life and not possessing the best idea of how her actions have consequences and tends to jump before she looks. She's had to deal with a lot of rejection in her life and so it's coloured her view of the world.
Sven, on the other hand, is a guy who has always breezed through life, been the "perfect" older sibling to Dora (perfect in the sense that he could do no wrong), writes crap country-music songs but still makes money off them and felt that Faye should have reciprocated when he announced that he loved her, despite the fact that his own actions caused the dissolution of his relationship with Faye and, more importantly, she is now in a relationship with another person. This is probably the first time he's been rejected and he can't actually deal with it. Add onto that his encounters with the other members of the cast (save for Hanners), the guy is a manipulator, a very toxic kind of person.

Sven was clearly the golden child outside the family. From the few comics that their parents appeared in, neither was treated as a golden child inside the family. Yeah, things came easy for him, but that doesn't make him toxic. He has grown as a character, Dora hasn't to me. And I wouldn't call him a manipulator. You can't manipulate the willing. Woman willingly wants to sleep with him, unless he convinces her to do something she would never do, she is willingly a one night stand. If that is the relationship she is willing to have with him, and he is ok with it, there is no manipulation what so ever. Hell, he did find a woman he fell in love with, Faye, because she put him in his place and still had sex with him. He was not used to be a sub and treated like one, and she did. He liked it, but fucked up the relationship. Sven _IS_ a fuck up.

It should be pointed out, even if it was prompted by him finally standing up to her, she's the one who broke it off with him.
