Everyone hates her. Even though she has a sympathetic story of having an abusive father who sexually molested her and stuff. Yet everyone still hates her.

She's a fuck up who chooses to do the most stupid mistakes despite Gump's efforts time after time.

They hate her because she never loved Forest, had unprotected sex with him when she was HIV positive, and pawned off a kid she had with another guy on him like it was his.

Because despite her awful childhood, she acts in a very selfish way. Though she may be sympathetic, she is still a pretty horrible person. She uses Forrest throughout the film and, if fan theories are to be believed, Jenny lied about Forrest's parentage to cuckold him after she contracted AIDs.

You can equally dislike the choices she made and still feel sorry for the shitty life she had. To be fair, she isn't exactly unique in the latter over the course of the film. Lt. Dan, in particular, overcomes some pretty awful shit and still doesn't act like a sociopath (not to say that justifies how Jenny was treated).

she sexually assaulted Forrest, too.

dude was developmentally disabled, and she took advantage of him, despite him not being that into it, IIRC.

Maybe because she was an asshole, raped Forrest, then dumped her kid on him when she realized she was going to die after sleeping around and doing a ton of drugs (likely while she was pregnant)

there's nothing, other than her word, to support Little Forrest as being his son, though.

it'd be nice, if that were the case, but it's reasonable to have doubts.
