Oh, absolutely. No doormats, please, it's enormously tiresome. I realize I possibly wasn't entirely clear--it's just that what happens when you write the girlfriends out is that often you end up with a story with no women at all, and that's also aggravating. In a different way.
Why can't ALL writers manage to characterize everyone in their fic, not just boys? Which is the real issue for me there. Right? It's actually NOT THAT HARD. *sulks*
