What I really hate is that it seems like American homes are designed for wearing your shoes indoors. Entryways don’t commonly have enough space next to the doors to put shoes or a shoe caddy, or there’s no nearby wall, so you’d have to put your shoes out in the open.
I know that may be a dumb excuse, but it always annoys me
Shoes in the house is very regional. I live in Colorado and everyone takes off their shoes just inside the door when visiting. The only exception would be like if someone came to deliver a piece of furniture or something where they need foot protection. Maybe it’s more common where it doesn’t ever snow, to leave them on?
Canadian here but still, shoes in house? Gross. Obsession with gun culture? Also gross.
German here. The shoe one is worse.

Canadian too, I wear my shoes inside. I don’t have kids, and I don’t roll around on the floor, so why would I care?
For me, outside is dirty and that’s fine, inside is clean.
If I stepped in chewing gum or dogshit or even just general grime, I don’t want that inside.
Are your walkways made out of dog shit? These are very specific things that you dont step on regularly.

Also Canadian, and never understood it - but in thinking, are there any Canadian shows that show the people in their own house without shoes on?
