Are we having a Xander Harris hate-athon?

He is never held accountabke for his attempted rape of Buffy.

This point is essential.

Guise, that was a hyena. Since when do we blame people for what they do when they’re possessed by hyenas?

we blame Spike and Angel for what they did when they were possessed by vampires. In fact, a hyena possession doesn’t remove one’s soul like vampirism does.

True, but (maybe I’ve just looked in the wrong places) it seems people forget Spike tried to rape Buffy as well seasons later. 

I’m with Kelley on this one. Xander wasn’t himself, he was possessed. Being a vampire isn’t exactly the same thing. Yes, you have a demon inside of you, but as Angel once said, you become a heightened version of yourself, not something entirely different. Xander wasn’t himself when he did this…but Spike was.
