Yes, but there is an article with his mother commenting about the conniving women and her son being raised right. I think it's totally possible that those closest to Eric freaked out and he's being influenced by that. Personally, I don't think Eric is an innocent party.

I just not a fan of Erik trying to act like he is mister innocent. First off it is a game and he should know things like this happen from watching the show. He could be upset about how they went about it, but the only one that was left he had any kind of alliance with left was Natalie. They where aligned pre-merge before the tribe split. Erik also shouldn't have promised several people alliances.

I don't like Erik's complain all of the women where evil or something especially when he had already tried to vote one of them out.. Amanda/Parvati didn't trick him out of his necklace that was Natalie/Cire. Erik was hoping to take out either Parvati or Amanda with that vote. Plus he had just tried to vote out Amanda. I don't think Erik owed it to keep Amanda if it hurt his game, but he can't complain then if he tries to vote her out and She stays and then she no longer trusts him. Erik also said in an interview that Alexis wouldn't have done anything like that. One that is posted on Survivor.com.

Honestly how does Erik know that she wouldn't? Alexis's main ally was Natalie. I think Alexis would have joined right in with the other women. I haven't seen Alexis bad mouth Natalie at all in any of her interviews. Yeah Erik's blindside hadn't been shown yet, but she defended Natalie on the Jason boot. So Alexis was for all the blindsides.

I actually like Alexis most out of the fans. I just don't buy Erik's claiming that Alexis wouldn't have joined in the women in manipulating him.
