she can be to tough, poor fluttershy is her very best friend and she needs to treat her with an understanding.

Rainbow dosen't MEAN to be that way, (unless she dose), it's just how she is

Rainbow only goes hard on her because she cares and wants to help her. :)

To be honest, I don't like Fluttershy that much, but I know Rainbow Dash cares no matter what.

Plus, I'm glad nopony chose the "Yes! rainbow is a loser! She can be so mean" option.

Rainbow is not a loser.

I don't know how it's possible not to ADORE Fluttershy, but anyways, I love both of them, and their relationship is sweet. Rainbow can be so wonderfully supportive and defensive of poor little Fluttershy...as a filly, right in the beginning of their friendship, she took it upon herself to come to Flutters' aid and stand up for her, because the other pony is too timid and anxious to stand up for herself. There are definitely times when Dash should remember who she's dealing with and tone it down, trying to be more sensitive and understanding, and taking it easy with her more delicate friend. Deep down she very definitely does care...yes, she can be a bit mean and on occasion too pushy, but she really just wants what's best for Fluttershy, and never intends to be hurtful.

Everyone, should be nicer to Fluttershy.

I like the moments where Rainbow Dash shows compassion towards Fluttershy, but I think what makes those moments so nice is their interesting relationship. If she was always too hard on her, I'd have probably voted yes, but I'm satisfied with how the show portrays their friendship as it is.

In a way, I think they kind of balance each other out. Dash encourages Fluttershy to show her assertiveness, while Fluttershy's sensitivity and kind nature help Dash to show her softer, caring side.

Rainbow Dash should be hard on her. She encourages Fluttershy to be the best that she can be.

I agree with Wishey.
