You're chitting me right?

First off, the topic of discussion is about our feelings about submissives that possesses a doormat mentality. So I won't go into generalities about my personal preferences in this thread. My taste are varied and extensive, but they don't include wanting a man, sub/slave or otherwise that has not a mind of his own.

Dear houseslut, Ladies and Gentlemen;

I do enjoy doormats.  Some have 'welcome' and some have pictures that says so much.  Some doormats have names.  Some doormats have artistic works and are indeed a work of art.  Some doormats are rough but they clean one's feet so well; keeping dirt out of your castle or home.  Some doormats are soft and cushion your tired and achey feet.  Most doormats lay humble at your feet, never complaining at their task or no matter how much you walk all over them or who.  Most doormats take a beating and really don't complain but they seemingly are cleaner, brighter and remain humble at one's feet.  Most doormats love your feet--and your shoes and boots too!  Most doormats wear very thin over time of being walked all over so many months, so many years ...or decades.  Some doormats find themselves rolled up into themselves and kept to themselves.  Some begin their journey that way, as do they find their final journey, when they are dismissed or find their way to the trash bin.  Some doormats find themselves useful when long past use; as we see them lay on the snow and or ice, at times mud; as to provide traction to tires and give us a chance to be on our way.  Some doormats lay on snow or ice as to allow their owners or guests some safety from falls or injuries.  Some doormats wrap themselves around trees to keep them from harm.  Some doormats are given to critters to give them comfort when they are moved from door's threshholds to Fido's dog house or some horse's stall and or in trailers when they are hauled.   Doormats come in different sizes and shapes, just like us humans.  Doormats come in different colors, some solid and pure and some mixed, just like humans of today.  Doormats are made for their tasks you know.  Some work hard, some graceful and some are doing more than what was designed.  Some doormats are changed from original intentions to do different things.  Some are given handles and carry a cord of wood.
Some are linked together to provide more coverage.  Doormats do provide a service when all is said and done. 

In my mind's eyes I see; a slave, submissive or servant--I see some wonderful qualities that are shared by doormats.  My slaves, submissives and or servants will learn what qualities of doormats.  However, I wish them to go beyond the lessons of what doormats mean to me and be at my feet and learn what it means to be a slave, a submissive and or servant to me.

Just some thoughts.

Respectfully submitted for consideration,
Lady Hugs

If anyone emails me and says "you can do anything you want" I always suggest cutting both their arms off... they tend to disappear pretty quickly after that...

Sometimes I feel like a doormat and sometimes I don't...  So I hope to find one who will be at my leisure, lol.    M

Thank you! Thank you and thank you!
I get tired of Mistresses/Domme's, etc. whining and complaining about
submissives that treat them like dirt, yet they abhor a doormat? WTF?
I think many need a reality check.

Some of the emails I've gotten and some forum posts makes me think more women want doormats than are willing to admit - or they just do not like men at all.  There are alot of jerks out there, but not every man is.

Sadly, I often get the same impression as well.

I want a Domme to see me as a man no matter what she may have in mind for me.  If I do things because I feel I'm of little worth instead of doing it because I think very highly of her worth, then she ended up with a loser.

Agreed!  I don't understand at all why a Domme would want a man who had no sense of value nor the ability to think on his own.  Is it not submitting a man's will to a woman to do that which he is cabable of determining or doing for himself, a large part of the definition of submission itself?  To my way of thinking, a doormat can not really submit, it was designed to be walked on and have its decisions made for it to begin with!  I don't see what sense of power or control is to be gained from having one that (sic) submits to a Domme.
