If you wear your shoes in the house, you are a a less-than
I'm in the US and shoes off inside.
Heres the thing tho, do slippers count as shoes?
House shoes are not shoes
Yeah maybe the dude is in the interior? Anywhere near the coast is shoes off
It's always baffled me that people are comfortable with shoes on inside.
I have no idea why anyone would want to wear shoes in the house.
It's so constricting and unnecessary. Do y'all not clean your floors? Do you feel like your floors are gross and shouldn't be touching your bare feet?
When you lay on the couch do you need to take your shoes off and then put them back on when you get up to go make a snack in the kitchen?
Makes zero sense to me
What if you have to quickly go inside and grab something? Do you take your shoes off for that or just walk inside?
Shoes are ok inside they’re not mandatory
Moved to a shoes off country over a decade ago.
That's EXACTLY what I do.
I got in and out of my house about 50 times per day, and my feet are size 13.5s, so all my shoes are tight (they don't make most shoes in anything larger than 13s). Plus my back isn't what it once was. If I had to bend over and take my shoes off 50 times a day, I'd actually lose it, "it" being my L3-4 disc.
Whereas, litereally nothing bad has ever happened to me because I wear shoes in the house. It's all some hypothetical ... I don't know what exactly. Grossness? Is grossness hurting me?
Tell you what's 'gross,' as a thought exercise tho - walking around barefooted where my dogs and cats walk barefooted, they're not exactly wearing shoes outside, or in the litterbox, nor are they putting a handkerchief down under their assholes when they sit down.
But a pair of flip-flops for in the house plus floor cleaning regularly... I don't really worry about it either way. IDK why anyone does.

My friend told me he felt the same way about jeans which is why he wears sweatpants everywhere. I didn't understand it with those and I don't get it with shoes. Both are super comfortable to me. Only times I'm not comfortable in shoes is when I'm forced to wear anything besides tennis shoes (mainly work boots and dress shoes).
Actually I absolutely agree with your friend and I don't even stop at jeans.
If I get home after work and I have zero plans to leave the house again or have anyone over I am in my Pajamas as soon as I can get my pants off, even if it's only 5pm lol
That's not me. It's not uncommon for me to sleep in my regular clothes as soon as I get home cause I'm too exhausted to bother changing. My pajamas only see use early in the morning unless I'm jumping immediately into the shower after waking up (which is usually what I do on weekdays).
You sleep in your clothes, wear shoes in the house, and prefer jeans to softer pants..? 😳
I just find regular clothes so uncomfortable in a relaxing setting like lying on the couch and watching tv.
Perfectly fine with them If I'm at work or going about my day outside but pajamas and loose clothing are just so much nicer to me than jeans or collared shirts at home
Laced shoes are a pita to flip on and off. If you're in a dry area there's no reason to take off your shoes.
If you can wear sandals, or it's a wet sloppy environment, then yeah it makes sense to take them off at the door.
I mean, if you're doing yard work or something understandable to leave your shoes on in your own home if you're coming inside for a snack or to grab something etc I do that all the time.
But like, if I invite someone over to hang out for a few hours I expect them to take their shoes off tying the laces isn't that complicated.
And if I am taking the day off and don't really need to leave the house for any reason I won't even touch my shoes I'm going to be barefoot or in slippers all God damn day.
?! You wear your yard work shoes in the house? Those usually come off before I go inside even if it is a quick grab n go.
Only if it's a quick trip <3 minutes after using a boot scraper and brush. Unless I know I've stepped in something particularly sticky like mud.
Edit: and only if it's my own home, not someone else's
Pakistan as shoes on? That seems wrong.
This chart is a hate crime against colorblind people.
Shoes on everywhere for me BUT it's Birkenstock type sandals indoors.
We have shoes, flipflops, and crocs piled inside the front door. If that doesn't give you a clue...
House slippers that are never out stomping turds and spit? Nope. All good.
Shoes on the main floor are ok but not upstairs
Hawaii?
100% shoes off, or failing that, flippahs.
