They are seen as the people on the margins of the GG social world. Vanessa is supposed to be more interested in social issues, grounded and also she’s Black. Jenny is seen as having less money than the main GG folks, and is seen as a child.
I personally hate several characters as much as I hated her, but for her specifically, the pompous assumptions that rules just don’t apply to her coupled with how nasty she treated her father and those who genuinely loved her makes her unbearable for me.
I don't hate hating Jenny. In fact, I love to hate her. Just because I hate her character doesn't mean I actually hate her character, does that make sense...?

It's impossible not to feel bad for Jenny when she first steps onto the scene. She's very out of place, doesn't have the money to afford the fashion that would make her liked at school, and she's very much bullied by Blair Waldorf as she attempts to fit in and befriend some people. She's completely judged on her lack of extravagant wealth, which is...
As she begins to settle into the Upper East Side though, she ends up becoming more like Blair. Initially, it's small things, like trying to fit in by being sneaky. Pretty soon, it becomes horrible. She makes Eric sit on the step below her because it's bad for her image to have him seen as an equal, and even dumps yogurt on Blair's head to make a po...
When Jenny gets an internship with Eleanor Waldorf Designs, it's her dream — besides the apprehension of working with Blair's family. But very quickly it becomes obvious that the job isn't easy, and she spends a horrific amount of time being taken advantage of. She plays along with it, because she wants a letter of recommendation and to become know...
It's hard to watch her become so involved with the fashion world that she makes bad choices that ultimately ruin her relationship with her father. RELATED: Gossip Girl: 10 Reasons Why Eric & Jenny Aren't Real Friends Rufus isn't exactly the perfect parent, but it's clear that he loves Jenny and is trying. Jenny, however, is just determined to leave...
Her whole spiral from innocent young girl to true Upper East Sider is hard to watch but sometimes, it invokes some real sympathy. For example, she goes as far as to steal a dress and as much as it's an awful thing to do, she's ultimately humiliated when Blair discovers this and outs her to all her friends. Her model friend also burns her dresses ou...
Chuck deserves far more hate than Jenny for this one, but fans still resented Jenny when she crawled into Chuck's bed and slept with him. It was the beginning of a huge downward spiral for the couple loved by fans everywhere, and although Jenny was clearly upset, in a bad place, and taken advantage of, fans weren't very sympathetic towards her bad ...
Blair certainly doesn't take it well though. She has Jenny banished from New York, going as far as to tell her that if she steps foot on the island of Manhattan again, she will regret it. As fans know by now, Blair always follows through on her ominous promises, so this was no idle threat and left Jenny forced to stay away for quite a while.
She pursues Nate when he's with Serenaand it's uncomfortable to watch. Nate genuinely doesn't seem to reciprocate her feelings but it doesn't dissuade Jenny, who even kisses him when he's clearly not consenting. It throws up huge problems for him and Serena too. Granted, Jenny has just been through a horrible ordeal and is acting out, but this is n...
Serena thinks she's doing a nice thing by throwing Jenny an awesome sixteenth birthday party, but it's clearly a misfire in judgment when Jenny doesn't love the idea. To be fair to Jenny, she's pretty upfront about what she wants and Serena goes against her anyway, so it's no surprise to fans when she's blatantly uncomfortable despite it seemingly ...
She conspires with Juliet and Vanessa against Serena, and it all goes too far when Serena ends up actually drugged. Jenny may never have expected it to get this far, but what did she expect from conspiring with a woman she barely knows, in a world that can be all too dangerous? She feels bad afterward, but Serena is put in a lot of danger. NEXT: Go...

Did Jenny know Dan was Gossip Girl?
I agree 100%! Jenny doesn't deserve all the hate. Did she do some terrible things? Yes, but it was learned behavior AND the only way to survive in the UES. Almost everyone let her down in one way or another, yet she still picked herself back up and had to put on a brave face.
