[QUOTE="Bullgrit, post: 6663539, member: 31216"] This whole question and discussion assumes that your shoes aren't particularly dirty/muddy/whatever. Of course you don't trudge mud through the house. When I was a kid, I don't remember having to take my shoes off to come inside the house. I remember keeping my shoes in my room where I put them on in the morning, and took them off at night. That's not to say I wore shoes indoors *all* the time, but unless I was staying inside for some time, I did wear them when passing in and out, through the house. But I definitely did not put them on furniture -- table, chair, bed, etc. Feet and shoes stayed on the floor. (In the summers, sometimes I wouldn't wear shoes even outdoors.) Now, though, with a wife and kids and our own house, everyone takes their shoes off when they enter the door. (I, however, too often wear them inside, still, until my wife reminds me to remove them. Habit, comfort, time/effort.) When we enter someone else's house, my kids immediately take off their shoes. I may or may not, depending on the home owner and how long we plan to stay. I know outside the US, nearly all cultures have nearly always taken their shoes off when indoors. The fact that this is a relatively new thing in my little world (changed for me in my world since getting married) makes me wonder how this is and has been in other regions of the US. Has shoes on/off changed since your youth? Have you always taken shoes off indoors? Bullgrit [/QUOTE]
