do yall not have mats in ya'll doorway??? do you not mop/vacuum on the regular???
i could never walk around barefoot...that's dirtier than anything to me...even in my own home...and i'd rather not get my socks dirty...that's what house slippers are for...i never really think much off it, but i walk around in my shoes sometimes...i'm not too anal about it....then again, i have hardwood floors and dark carpet...
i'd be more weary about somebody rockin some dirty %+% socks on my floor

while in many asian/middle-eastern/greece/italy etc. their cultures emphasized cleanliness with sauna's/bath houses/cultural standard etc.
if this offends you then instead of saying im "rascist" or "ignorant" explain your stance with a convincing argument.
also pookie have you even travelled anywhere in the world? or even in the U.S. for that matter?
and have I traveled? yes, just returned from Austria on Tuesday. And regardless of where I have been or haven't been - your statement is quite idiotic...BAR NONE, one of the dumbest things I have read on this forum over my 10 year membership.....BAR NONE

Yeah this is exactly the kind of stuff I think about. I hate when people wear shoes in the house, I just imagine all that stuff they walked on outside is now all over the floors. I only wear slides around the house and I refuse to wear them outside to keep them "clean". Occasionally I walk around the house with just socks on, but never barefoot, because I think that's dirty also. Most people I know consider me some kind of "germaphobe", not just for that but for a lot of other things, but I just consider it basic cleanliness.

Soon as you walk through the door shoes come off my mom don't play that
I can't stand people that get mad that they have to take their shoes off when they enter the house.

I'm black, and always take my shoes off. Not because of hygiene just because it's more comfortable walking around with socks. Or if I'm at someone's house I don't want to mess up their floors
Never barefoot, that's how you catch a cold

So mats and a vacuum gets rid of stains and bacteria on carpet now? Maybe if you didnt walk in your house with shoes on from the start, your socks wouldnt get dirty.

As Joe Camel Smooth put it, the OP is epically stupid.
I've never heard a generalization such as the one that Americans particularly those who are white and black have the worst hygiene. I could easily talk about Eastern Europeans, people from the Middle East or people of the Indian sub continent.
No one walks around their living quarters for extended periods of time with footwear on.
Plus people mop if they have hardwood or linoleum floors and vacuum/steam clean if they have carpet.

Stains can still happens without wearing shoes. If you live in your house, it’s going to get dirty. What happens when you have a repairmen, a Cable guy, a plumper, etc. are you going to make them take their shoes off too.

i can understand not wanting people to walk around but don't act like that +++%+ the dirtiest thing ever...because i've been around people who "traditionally" take shoes off in their culture and they smell like they don't even know deodorant exist
