Why do Americans wear shoes inside?
As far as i know this isn't common anywhere else in the world. Hell, its downright disrespectful in my country to not take off your shoes when you're a guest.

Explain yourself Americans.
>>
Too lazy to remove shoe.
>>
fat fucks are too lethargic to remove their own damn shoes thats why
>>
>>725590756
but you're making the floor dirty..
>>
>>725591158
and then the wife or mexican maid clean the floor.
>>
Because as Americans we can afford steam cleaning or replacement of carpets and floor refinishing. Haters gon hate. We still won.
>>

So what if it's disrespectful to not unshoe in your shitty country of Yemen , none of us care about your Mudslimes rules.

Last remaining vestiges of when we had small cabins while we conquered a fucking land.

Also, it's becoming increasingly prevalent to remove your shoes indoors.
>>
>>725590024
If we leave our shoes outside, some nigger will steal them.
>>
>>725590024
enjoy getting sweaty fungus footprints on your carpet or in the guest "shoes" you offer.
in my own home i have house shoes only worn indoors, guests of course can leave their shoes on, i'm not a dictator.
i expect them to not carry dogshit or dirt into my home, though.
>>
>>725590024
Its just a normal thing here. Some people want shoes to be left at the door and its polite to do so when asked. Most American houses consider it normal to wear shoes. It such a normal thing for me I feel strange when I walk outside of my room without them.
>>
Eh, it's something that happens in some places. Some places (like where I live) it's mixed. Sometimes you take off your shoes. Sometimes you don't.

There you would only really take off your shoes when the host is fine with it. Or if you're going to be in a place for longer then 5 mins.

TL;DR It depends on the place and person

So that we can have clean socks.

So that we don't break our toes on the table legs.

So that we don't pick up other peoples foot fungus and transfer it to our feet/shoes.

Because you never know when there might be broken glass or pins hiding in the carpet.

Because most american shoes are lace-ups ... which are a pain in the ass to put back on once removed - unlike the sandals common in the 'shoes off' countries.

Because stepping on Legos barefoot is max scale pain.

Also - rattlesnakes.
>>
>>725590024
Not only do I expect guests to remove their shoes before entering my crib and I inisist that they sit down when they pee. Guests are also expected to leave their shit logs floating in the toilet for me to inspect later. You obviously know nothing about American culture.
>>
Let me put it this way: Of the countries of the World, which would be the most likely to allow shoes in the home?
>>
Anybody tells me to take my shoes off I tell em to get bent. I'm not cleaning your floor with my socks. And don't offer me your fungus ridden flip-flops either. My shoes stay ON.

You wouldn't have to worry about that if you didn't make your floor dirty by wearing shoes inside

Unless your shoes are covered in mud and dog shit, I don't want to see your weird toes, smell your sweaty socks, or on a 1st world note - slightly inconvenience you by having you take your shoes off.
If you lie on my couch with shoes on, they definitely need to be clean, but no need to remove them.
