For many cultures it's a matter of respect and cleanliness not to wear dirty shoes in the home. It just makes sense.
How about if there new Sneakers 👟 yet u generalize everyone shoes?
I swear shoes in the house is only an American thing
@@69Fabulosity If you walked outside their dirty. THINK
@@loveafrica97 i absolutely agree! We can see it during movies all the tine🤣
@@69Fabulosity i said dirty shoes ....
When you are invited into someone's home and their culture is to not wear shoes indoors, especially in Asian families, it is EXTREMELY insulting to not comply. Don't disrespect another's home, culture, or rules.
I think every foreign person that I have ever met is the same. We don't wear shoes inside. Shoes are nasty. U go to public restrooms in ur shoes. Ewww
Don't do parties at home if that is the case. Im asian and i know these stuff but hate it in a party setting. Will just stay at home. On a daily basis, feel free to do your rules or let's say you have a repair guy coming or a few friends then you can ask them to take their shoes off but also be considerate to give them disposable slippers. I personally do have foot ache when i walk barefoot on a marble or tile floor. I hate the cold feeling. You might also catch athlete's foot. And in a party setting, people wore their best and took time to dress up then at the end they will just be barefoot or wearing slippers?!?!
Same in Europe. Coming inside the house with dirty shoes on and stepping on our carpets that take hours and lot of effort to clean it's disrespectful asf.
@@stanbalo well, bless your heart.
Americans vicious cycle of wearing shoes inside the home:
Dirty floor > wearing shoes to protect from dirty floor > shoes making the floor dirty
I miss Jeanie. I know she would have had a lot to say with this topic!!! I can imagine her reaction 😂😂
I miss her too 💕 can’t wait until she’s back
Why is she not there anymore?
@@Sunshine-is_here_to_stay maternity leave
I was about to say!!! We are asians and THIS IS A BIG NO!!!!!!!!!!
I thought this also. She would have educated "ignorant" lonnie
If someone asks you to take off your shoes in THEIR house, do it or don't come in 🤷🏾♀️
💯
Period
Absolutely! I have shoe covers but I’m always surprised that service people show up without their own.
My parents are 100% not about shoes in the house. They provide shoe covers or slippers. Pick one!
@@thunder8185 if folks provide alternate feet covering then that is fine. but there are many who do not. they just expect you to walk barefoot in their home or dirty you own socks. umm no. sometimes they even have pets!
As a Norwegian, it would be seen as EXTREMELY rude to keep your shoes on in someone else's house (and strange in your own). Don't do that here. A lot of other countries are the same.
I totally agree. It is the same in a lot of Asian cultures and in Arab culture as well. I just think it is also a matter of cleanliness.
Alle har det sånn. Jeg vet ikke hva de der snakker om.
@@rocktokiohotel94 Kan ikke tenke på noen andre kulturer hvor dette er normen.
It’s the same for the Caribbean especially in Jamaica
In Sweden too !
I love that culture cos I really hate shoes in the house
In Canada we all take our shoes off. We find it strange that Americans wear shoes in the house
Right? Why is this even a conversation? I thought the shoes in the house thing only happened on cartoons 😂
Americans are about the only ones.
I know a few Canadians and none of them take their shoes off before entering the home. They live near the American boarder, though, so maybe that's part of the reason.
@@volcrazy89 Right. I lived in Manitoba in Canada for the last four years, and not one person ever took their dirty shoes off. Whenever I told them, they acted irritated and offended and confused. I'm Eritrean, in my culture you never enter a house with outside shoes.
@@volcrazy89 thats surprising to me especially since we get snow alot. I'm in the west and everyone here takes off shoes
Asking someone to take off their shoes is not obnoxious at all!
Right especially if u have light carpet
@@rogers5622 That's the thing, most people have hard floors and walking on those is much different than carpet. Yes these people want you to remove their shoes too, even on a nice sunny day. I don't go baerfoot in my own home, why do you think I would be okay doing it in someone else home?
It is fine to ask but be prepared for the time someone tells you they cannot remove their shoes because of a disability. I need sneakers to walk safely.
@@mjaynes288 Thanks for sharing!
Do you know what kind of dirt you’re stepping on in the street? Not to mention the amount of public bathrooms you’ve been to with your shoes on. Wearing them inside the house is absolutely vile 🤢
Its the public bathrooms for me!
I cringe when I see people wearing their shoes indoors, sometimes they are on their couches or their beds. Just no!!
Do you own a pet?
@@69Fabulosity You’re on multiple comment sections raging about this as if it’s a personal issue. I’ve only ever seen Americans argue over this cause in the rest of the world people take their shoes off when they enter a house. You said in another comment that you want people to tell you beforehand if you’re gonna take them off by the entrance so that you won’t bother coming over. We get it, you absolutely refuse to take you’re shoes off indoor but calm down.
Who offers shoe covers or socks for guests? Is this a PJ party or an event
As an East African Muslim it’s part of our culture to not wear shoes indoors because we pray in our homes and therefore the floor has to be clean at all times. Being outside and walking around picking up dirt everywhere and then coming home and not taking off that dirty shoes is beyond gross and disgusting! When I was younger and would go to friends houses and people would wear their shoes indoors it was quite a culture shock to me.
Somali?
I thought i was the only one who identifies myself as an East African without breaking it down. 🤛🏾
Agreed 🇪🇷🇪🇷
🇰🇪
Same😃
For Muslims taking your shoes off is the norm. I find it weird when I go to people's house and we just walk around with shoes
Seriously!!!!
That's not islam. That's culture. I'm muslim and we never grew up going around bare feet in the house. In Arab societies, removing your shoes or being asked to remove shoes in the hall of someone's house is Not welcoming at all..quite the opposite, quite rude. No one will come in to dirty the house and if they do, well so what. It's human it happens and this is my guest. Should I rant and rave about shoes or be welcoming to them. So again this is from culture, not from religion.
@@shembeliever6095 loool ok babe. I'm not Arab, nor do I follow Arab culture so go off. And its cute you're acting like people are forced to take their shoes off. If other Muslims come to your house they know to take their shoes off. If non Muslims come to your house they usually ask. I normally say don't worry, I'll mop up later. But if they ask and you tell them to take it off fine. No one tells people entering to take it off as an order, we don't do that
@@munab3666 no one asks here darling . Its all about welcome and welcoming others. Salah is done in another room and no contact with outside shoes. Its simple. We are asked to welcome others and be good hosts in Islam.
BTW thanks for the go off!
I'm 1st generation latina and my home is a no shoes household, everyone's shoes are organized by the entrances. I don't need to ask my guest to remove the shoes bc everyone gets the shoes by the door code lol. But yes I completely agree, no shoes in the house! It's so dirty, literally so many germs out doors, especially in public bathrooms, stores, etc. No thanks! You can miss me with the bugs and viruses 🐛 😷
I heard that Sis! Ok let them know! 👏
@@Getitgirlllll4717 🗣📢😆
Girl we have germs in our bodies to help us fight off other diseases 🤦♀️ germs & dirt are everywhere I'm sure ur not walking around ur house with a ultra light 🤣💯 Do u have pets bc most of America owns pets & if u do I'm sure ur not offering them slippers or socks after peeing or pooping outside so miss me with the b.s there's no such thing as spotless floors unless u hiring Molly the maid to mop & sweep every 2hrs 🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣💯❗
@@69Fabulosity lol natural germs are part of humans daily life, no arguing that and trust me as someone with extensive history in the medical field I'm well aware but why bring in additional germs if you don't need to? Now as far as me and my household I may not mop round the clock but hey I have less to worry about when the unnecessary stuff stays by the front door. That's why I trust how I live and how I live alone, everybody don't live the same and that is apparent 😄
@@mindovermatter8888 however if someone enters your home with shoes & then leaves them near the door the point is the front door is still dirty then wouldn't that be simple logic so if you are going to & from the door & bk you would be spreading the dirt even if u can't see it 🤔 idk 🤷♀️ but this ideal that your home is somehow more cleaner than some that let's guest keep their shoes is b.s there's no scientific evidence just speculation 💯 now if a cultural thing that great that's respectable but to say someone as yourself lives cleaner is totally b.s..also take into account the person like myself that let's ppl wear their shoes but barely has company versus someone who tells company put your shoes away but consistently has ppl in & out of their home 🏡 who's to say who's house has cleaner floors lol..idk I don't like no one too comfy in my home unless u paying rent or chipping in I don't want no one walking around my house with no shoes lol..keep those 🐷 piggies in your shoes bc everyone toes not meant to be out them 👞 🙊🤭😷🤢🤮🤣💯❗
Are people in the US really wearing shoes at home??? In my country it's the norm to take off your shoes
I dont!! I kick my shoes off right when I get home !!
I don't know where these Americans live... It must be a regional thing...The Midwest you ALWAYS take your shoes off.
I've never been to someone's home that didn't expect you to take shoes off. Maybe in college at a house party... 🤷♀️
@@ttomas2369 lol that's YOUR experience. In my several years of living in Indiana and Illinois, nobody I knew did this. I grew up in the South and the only person I ever witnessed do this was my aunt, which I thought was weird AF as a child. She only did it because she had just bought her house and had just put down brand new carpet.
@@ttomas2369 +1. MN here. You’re disgusting if you wear shoes in the house.
This gotta be an American thing bc in Canada it’s normal to take your shoes off when entering your/a home. Ain’t nobody want dirt and grime from outside all up in your house
I'm glad someone said it! 🙌🏽We don't play that over here! 🎯🎯🎯 I was surprised Loni said it's not a problem 😳 😂
Canadian here...plz no shoes in my house
How is this a US thing? I’ve lived in/visited a few Latin American countries and was never asked asked to take off my shoes and the families who lived there didn’t either.
@@anndeecosita3586 Im saying it because they are Americans speaking on it
I think I speak for a lot, if not most Jamaicans, we don't want you wearing your shoes inside our homes. Nope!! And we have that same mannerism when we go to people's houses, we take off our shoes. 🇯🇲
I was coming to comment this. if I wear sandals to someone's home I always have a pair of socks in my bag to slip on as I slip my shoes off. Its rude to go in someone's home with shoes on. and I will ask a guest to take theirs off
Man, I was searching for this comment. I’m carib Latina and we take our shoes off. It’s a definitely no-no to walk into someone’s home with your shoes.
@@aviabrowne837 I always think of the germs and bacteria that's on the road that will be brought into the home on shoes.
Same with Trinidadians, take your shoes off!!
@@aviabrowne837 yes!! People always look at me funny putting my socks on slipping out of my flip-flops😅 not walking around barefoot &respecting your home!
I am Jamaican🇯🇲 and we don't wear shoes inside. It grosses me out when I see people with their shoes that has gone in so much germs outside wearing them on their bed. I have seen Americans doing that. I was watching an episode of All things Adrienne recently and when she did it I was like YUCK!
I agree
I'm surprised by this! In New Zealand, it's polite to take your shoes off when entering someone's home. It would be obnoxious not to.
In my household taking your shoes off is a MUST! I am Muslim and we pray on these floors and carpets so keeping them clean is important. I know some people are uncomfortable without shoes so I keep extra slippers around the house. My mind just can’t grasp how people walk inside their homes with shoes that have stepped on the filthy ground outside or how they let their babies crawl on those floors, I just can’t 😩
Exactly. Same. I've never not taken my shoes off
it’s dirty walking outside and bringing that dirt into your home. leave them at the door please
💯
So if you walk towards the door afterwards wouldn't you be spreading the germs around 🤔 logical rt?
@@69Fabulosity i typically open the door, take a shoe off and step in lol if that makes sense
I wish jeannie was here to give her input as someone who's culture involves this. For them to say that someone must provide you with socks or shoe covers in THEIR home after asking you to take your shoes off, sounds more obnoxious. you're in someone's home, respect their space. if you can do something as simple and harmless as that, stay at home.
There are many reasons why someone may want their feet covered. In my case I was born with a limb difference and it is, quite frankly, embarrassing to have ppl stare and gawk at my bare feet. I absolutely respect the no shoes in the home policy, I honor it in my home as well, however, it is greatly appreciated when I am provided socks or slippers as a guest in someone’s home on the off chance I forgot my own. People can have all sorts of conditions, fungus, and who knows what else going on where they don’t want their feet on display, showing consideration in this area is a kindness.
I grew up with taking my shoes off before entering our home. When I visit others I never wait for them to tell me to take them off. That's just a practice for me. Thus, when I go to other people's homes I BRING SOCKS. What a concept! Lol. Sometimes I forget and I either just deal, ask for a pair or they offer it. But the entitlement is strange. I'm not providing shoe covers to service people. That's your expense if it's a policy that you must keep your shoes on.
They are guest, it’s not obnoxious to make the guest feel comfortable when making request. I provide shoe covers, socks, disposable slippers and monogrammed slippers for frequent guest. There is a beach and table so they can comfortably change. I also carry socks with me because I don’t like walking barefoot on floors.
You should definitely provide covers or socks. I don’t walk barefoot in my own home and I clean my floors daily. Some people floors is dirtier than the bottom of a shoe.
My mother asks people to remove their shoes but she also has little comfy socks for them to wear and of course keep......it's not obnoxious to do either thing.....if people are going to respect your home at your request by taking off their shoes at least reciprocate and try to make them feel comfortable by giving them something to put on their feet.....keep in mind foot fungus is a concern for people as well.....just because you are barefoot in your home it doesn't mean your feet are clean....taking off your shoes in someones home is a rather intimate thing and it shows that you feel comfortable there so I would understand why people might be uncomfortable by the request initially. I wear socks if I know I am going to someone's house just in case....
To us here in Sweden 🇸🇪 its the ABSOLUT OTHER WAY AROUND its actually obnoxious not to take of your shoes it’s 99.9 % of us do that here I think it’s so nasty not to take of your shoes 🙄🤮
I wish you were part of my house, a 6 person home in NYC with 5 other strangers. I am higly disgusted and make sure that I do Not wear shoes in my room
Girl shutup talking about 99.9% 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not the European talking with them being known to not shower 🤮
Well, my husband is Korean American so it’s cultural. My Mexican family respects it without questioning it.
Same! Hey girl! My fiance is Black and Korean, and they don't play about that! Especially his Mamma! Who is super dope by the way! ! You bet not think about rolling up w your shoes on in the hse! Lol.... Respect! I think it's dope ur family respects that about your husband! Nice!
🤣🤣 so ignorant
Yes, taking your shoes off when entering someone's home, especially if they ask you, yes remove your shoes. There's absolutely nothing obnoxious about that. It's all part of CLEANLINESS.
Yes I agree it would be nice though to offer them some socks or something
I am from Kenya...and it is part of our culture for people to remove their shoes in people's houses. I am happy to see it is the case in many cultures in the comments 🙂
At this point, I would consider this an American thing. I live in Australia, and the assumption is to always take your shoes off unless they insist otherwise. I always wear socks when I visit other people. Not everyone is as clean, and at least there's a barrier between my feet and the ground.
Really? We don't do that in South Africa.
@@bohlalenchabeleng1370 Yes we do, which part of south africa are you from?
Kwa kweli kabisa sis! I’m a coastal Swahili myself and God forbid if you walk into someone’s home without removing your shoes. Big NO.
In Turkey it's a norm... I think in some Asian communities too but it's my house, my rules.
I cannot image walking in my turkish families house with my shoes on lol
I am African and was raised to take my shoes off once I enter the house.I have been living in the US since I was a teen and still no one enters my house with shoes on
I’m glad I have friends that understand right away. They’ll come over and see shoes by the door and see me take mine off so they take theirs off too without me asking.
Plus, some shoes make your feet smell bad after you take them off. It's just so uncomfortable for the guest to be asked to remove their shoes. Give them a coverge if you're that worried about cleanliness.
THANK YOU!!
I don't get why they are actually all dramatic like your visiting the White house when 90 percent of Americans own dogs who go outside with no shoes poop & pee outside & walk inside & they worried about my shoes huh 🤔 ⁉️ I don't want 2c no one feet or want no one taking off their shoes in my house unless u live here or pay rent 💯❗
@@69Fabulosity Girl exactly! They acting like shoes are so gross from outside. Meanwhile I'm worried about my feet touching your germy floor with cat pee, mud butt and God knows what else. Shoes are meant to protect our feet and I'm keeping mine on or not coming
@@ShelbySteele23 Facts I feel the same I just won't feel comfortable bc I don't know u like that & feel comfortable taking my shoes off in someone house & don't want my socks dirty after walking on their floors. Ive heard ppl talk about footies or slippers but Never had one person offer me none when I walked in their house 🤦♀️🤣💯❗ & I ❤🐶 & pets in general but 4them 2act like their house is cleaner than someone who let's ppl walk in with their shoes is delusional let's be logical folks 💯❗ unless u hiring Molly the maid to mop & sweep every 2hours there's no such thing as a spotless floors 💯❗
Facts...germs are everywhere chile...like socks dont have germs...
I’m from Poland and everyone takes their shoes off, unless it’s a party, it’s better to dance in shoes sometimes and the house is gonna get cleaned anyway. I actually think in most countries no shoes in the house is the standard. It just makes sense: you don’t bring dirt into the house, you don’t scratch the floor with heals, and also who is comfortable seating on a couch with shoes on? Do you not want your feet to have a break?
I agree with Adrienne that if you request that guests take off their shoes when entering your home you should have socks or slippers for them. You should also be polite in how you ask people to remove their shoes. Tone and delivery are essential when you’re making a request.
Hellll no, do not wear your shoes that you wore OUTSIDE into my home. I have 3 kids who make enough mess, do not bring them germs in here.
A lot of my friends who are either Asian or have lived at Asia at one point in time in their lives, automatically take off their shoes when they enter my home. I never ask them to, But whatever satisfies them. I also don't mind taking off my shoes if someone asks.
For Asians it is cultural.
I’m from England, and I would never in a MILLION YEARS leave my shoes on in someone’s home. And I would never expect someone to leave their shoes on in my home. Bring your own socks! Don’t trail the outside into my house, on my carpet….
This is why I don't invite people to my house. If someone says they won't take their shoes off, they aren't coming in
This is so weird to me! I'm from Canada and everyone here (or at least everyone I know) always takes their shoes off when they enter their home or someone else's, even during parties. It is never even a thought, we just do it automatically. To me, a big pile of shoes at the door is a sign of a fun party/gathering! I do think it's a respect/cleanliness thing here as well. Like Adrienne said, the thought of tracking in all the dirt from outside and anything you might have stepped in seems gross, and I wouldn't want to do that to someone when I came to their house.
I live in a city with seasons. Take them shoes off and leave them at the door. Especially, during rainy days and the winter months
I’m American and culturally didn’t grow up with a requirement to my shoes off but it was an unspoken rule to do so. Every so often I might come home and forget but it wasn’t the end of the world. Growing up, going to other peoples houses I would immediately start taking off my shoes and when some one would say “oh, you can keep them on” I thought that was weird and that’s when I realized it was an unspoken rule at my house. However, when moved out of my parents house I definitely incorporated a ( very spoken) no shoe rule in my house and I do have slippers/socks or shoe covers if guests or the handyman prefers that. Side note I live in New York…so yea it’s more of a clean thing! If I ever move it will be the same!
The only thing with thoes shoe covers is that you are putting more waste into the environment. In Canada, everyone I know takes off their shoes when you enter anothers home. Just think of everywhere your shoes have been, public washrooms, mud, dirt.
this is the most American topic lmaoo in Canada this is soooo normal to take them off
It's rude to walk into any1 once place with shoes on.
💯
Disagree
I wish you all would stop saying, “this is so American” as if all Americans wear shoes in the house 😒🙄Secondly, it’s just a simple difference in culture and ways of life. We don’t have a problem complying with your rules if you don’t allow shoes in your home, but you need to have something to put on my feet when I’m at your home because idk if your floors are clean or not. At least have disposable foot socks for guests to put over their shoes or on their actual feet so they can feel comfortable. That’s what I do. I learned that from experience. I had a friend who’s family does not allow shoes in the home, so I took my shoes off and end up with black feet. Therefore, if you’re gonna ask ppl to take off their shoes, have something for them to put on their feet…Since then I’ve invested in disposable socks and slippers. Got two big boxes of them stored in the laundry room entrance.
That’s the fucking point of taking off your shoes off before entering a home, so the floor wont be dirty. The very reason that you Americans have these paranoia of people’s home’s floor being dirty, is the direct result of your own habitual culture of WEARING SHOES INSIDE YOUR HOME that would make your floor dirty.
Exactly tbh I agree with the first part about the American part because I don't tbh😊🤭🤷🏽♀️
I think it’s extremely rude & disrespectful how some people expect you to take your shoes off when you go to their house but when they come to yours they don’t even think about taking theirs off. That’s the real problem.
Yeah in my friend group this is always a US vs Europe discussion. I’d say throughout Europe most people would naturally take off their shoes when entering a home. And it’s also expected. An unspoken rule, the way we were raised… :)
Im super Ocd about the bottom of shoes specifically... I literally only grab my shoes from the top only and bag them if I'm packing so of course shoes off im my home....the surfaces you walk on are gross if you think about it...
When I watch people review shoes and rub, touch, pat the bottom of their shoes I'm disgusted. I'm with you, Dridri!
Me watching from Canada not understanding the debate…
In our culture it's disrespectful & unclean to bring the germs from outside into the home, especially if the home isn't yours. Floors at home should be clean enough to lay down on & have babies crawl without worry. Yes the pets' paws even get cleaned afterwards.
When someone invites me into their home I usually ask casually “Shoes off?” and do whatever they say. I think some people feel uncomfortable asking you to take your shoes off, which is why I ask them what they want.
No it is *NOT* “obnoxious” to ask people to respect whatever rules you have set for your home. Like my parents always said growing up “My house, my rules. You wanna make the rules? Buy your own house. Until then, take off your shoes and put on these house slippers like a civilized person.” *Bear in mind, I don’t throw parties at my home and am quite the home-body as it is, so this makes it quite practical for a day-to-day basis.* 💁🏽♀️
In Ireland, only rich people make their guests take of their shoes. It’s just seen as rude to ask your guests to do that since they are ment to be treated a bit more special.
In France you don’t need to ask people most of them take off their shoes by themself. If they don’t we don’t ask them too it a bit rude. But keeping your dirty shoes inside a home it’s seen as almost disrespectful.
The FIRST person I thought of was Jeanie 😂🤣
I immediately started to miss Jeannie 😢 😭 😔 when this topic came up. I'm ok though 💔
All shoes are left at the door in my home. Not a cultural thing, just a hygiene thing lol You mean to tell me that the bird sh*t at the bottom of your shoe is cleaner than the floors of my house? Sweep and mop daily with the purple fabuloso 😂
Loni , you look Good! And please don’t ever think that you don’t . I hear you joke about yourself at times but you need to know you are looking great . Makeup hair and everything on point ! ✨✨✨
If you ask someone to take off their shoes it should be respected but like Garcelle said they should have slippers or socks for them . Personally, I don’t like walking on the floor barefoot not even in my own house. It feels weird and everybody floor ain’t clean 🥴😐🤷🏽♀️
Try living in a asian household
Who throws a party and then asks people to take off their shoes?
Lol wouldn't that person tell everyone before...
I love learning more about Garcelle and hearing more how relatable she is. I would say it’s a Caribbean thing to walk around bare foot even in your front or back yard
Right she's like so relatable tbh like I'm not carriban but American but my parents are African but I do the same thing too go barefoot tbh
For me it’s both cultural and religious reasons as both of those aspects prioritise cleanliness and hygiene. My parents have been doing this and so have I. Dragging your shoes from the outside where you sometimes walk over human or animal urine or poo and other stuff and bringing it into your home is nasty and to me it’s also a sign of disrespect.
If I invited someone to my house I wouldn’t ask them to take their shoes off because it doesn’t matter to me. But I know everyone is different and I know it’s in most Asian households that they ask you to take your shoes off so of course I would respect that if they invited me over.
I have never understood why people wear shoes inside. I may be biased because I'm Asian but having grown up in America. It grosses me out. There is poo, spit, vomit and everything you can think of on the streets. The roads also have alot of toxic chemicals and pesticide run off from rain. It takes five seconds to kick your shoes off.
I spotted lying Asians across the street. They received a new sofa and I watched as the 2 movers walked into through the door, and put the sofa down. My neighbor denies this every though I saw it with my own 2 eyes. So they do allow people to wear shoes.
I love this hairstyle on Adrienne. Very classy!
Americans wear shoes indoor. Canadians and Europeans don't. My ex ( first bf ) was American. When I went to visit I was shocked that he asked me to keep my shoes in his apartment. That was weird.
On visiting the Caribbean they don't either. It appears that the majority of persons who do this culturally are Americans. In fact there are some who wear their shoes in bed.
I'm American and I don't tbh😊🤭😁😕👀👁️👄
@@cheriedeparis5000 in bed ahhhh no that's so uncleannnnn true prob just an American thing !!
It’s too much to think about. If I’m leaving the house in a rush am I really going to take my shoes all the way off just to go run back inside for something?! No that’s silly to me and if you say you’d do that you’re lying. Even if you did it once you still had shoes from outside on the floor. I wear house shoes that have been outside to the porch. Outside is outside period no matter how long they been on the ground. I am not driving myself crazy over inevitable dirt that will be swiffered away.
@Honey the beautiful Pomeranian 🍯🐾 so y’all must be jobless cause I’m sure you would be fired for being late all the time. Or bosses and just get there when you get there for the sake of the floor?
@Honey the beautiful Pomeranian 🍯🐾 lol I’ll respectfully disagree on that last part. But good for you. I tried it but it is just unrealistic and I don’t care enough cause I can clean my floor and I honestly didn’t even notice a difference in the amount of dirt tracking from outside on my wooden floors.
I worked in real estate a while ago and a homeowner required everyone walking through to tour the home to remove their shoes. Not an unusual request in selling homes with new carpet, tile and floors. This particular house though was still occupied and they obviously had a small dog they allowed to relieve itself in the home, which we did not realize until we entered the basement and found dog urine and feces every where laying on the basement carpet. I no longer remove my shoes. I don’t trust it.
In Canada no one ever wears shoes in your house, it’s very strange if someone tells you you can wear shoes in your house
This is western. In other parts of the world , it's really common to take if your shoes
I just always ask if people want me to take my shoes off when I get to their place. Or if I know I'll be there a while, I take them off, even though I don't always in my own home.
Omg perfect timing . I don’t wear shoes in my home and I recently started having bible studies in my home.I do not make them remove their shoes.
I understand why people don't like shoes being worn in the house but I'm personally uncomfortable walking around without shoes on in other people's homes.
As a West African woman… you better remove your shoes in MY house 😂😂 if you don’t want people to see your feet, wear socks. I don’t even feel comfortable keeping my shoes in other people’s house 😩
@Honey the beautiful Pomeranian 🍯🐾 exactly
What about other culture? On last episode .... lonie said she wish ppl learn about black culture.... but dont they wanna learn about other culture?for asians...entering homes with shoes are a big NO. its rude to not take them off when entering their homes. We cleaned our floors daily basis. We mopped them etc. Meanwhile, for muslims, is also not okay to wear shoes in the house... coz we pray 5 times a day, and we put our face on the floor as a part of prayer.
In South Africa we wear our shoes at home, when I left my country I found that people actually do this, it was a cultural shock to me, I wasn't all the way comfortable because some people floors are dirty and I'd be wearing white socks. I have invested in shoe covers and slippers for my guests though , think it's good practice but have your floors clean,please!
I've never understood how some people would have so dirty floors, this is brought up constantly when people debate on this topic. I have never worn shoes indoors when I visit someone and not once have I seen an actually dirty floor. I got an idea how to not dirty your floors, don't wear shoes indoors, that's probably the only reason they get dirty in the first place.
Nice that A. mentioned J.! It’s true, in some cultures (🙋🏻♀️) it’s a must to take your shoes off.
Absolutely not! You do not wear your shoes that you wore outside on the streets into someone’s home. A mat is not going to fix that nor clean your shoes 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️😒😒😒
We've never ever worn shoes in our house and when I visit family and friends I always take off my shoes as well. It's a respect thing with many cultures so I completely understand when I'm asked to take off my shoes. I also don't want the outside dirt that's under my shoes to be tracked into my home or my family and friends, especially if there is any children in the home.
So what do you do when you're getting dressed and want to try on different shoes you've already worn outside of the home? Do you not try them on inside the home? In general, how do you handle the shoe part when getting dressed for the day?
@New Mindset I'm like the OP and the rule is once the shoe has been outside, you clean underneath the shoe. If they've never been worn outside or have been cleaned put them on in the house to go outside otherwise shoes stay at the door. I live in Australia so the general rule is no shoes indoor unless the host say otherwise. I always wear socks when visiting other people's houses.
@@arnitaxavier9446 Appreciate the response.
0:14 geez how can you think your shoes are cleaner when they probably stepped on public restrooms, dog poop, trash, and so many other things that are on the street? like HOW??? It's actually insulting to hear that someone thinks like this. also, the point about shoes being "protection," do you think a person will have something dangerous laying around their house if they themselves take their own shoes off??? the more I'm trying to understand why one might keep their shoes on, the less I can relate. And SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN, it's cleaner to take your shoes off. period.
Jurst because you don't wear outside shoes in your house, that does not mean that your floor is clean! People be asking you to remove your shoes with no other options, while their floors are dusty and dirty. I'm the kind of person who never asks someone to do something if I don't give them an alternative to make them seelf comfortable. No one forced them to be in my house, therefore when I ask them to remove their shoes I always have to provide them with clean socks and slippers and be mindful to buy different sizes. I hate being barefeet or walking around only with my socks on, so I have to provide people with different options.
If you come to my house just know I will ask you to take of your shoes.
My home is a 'no shoes' inside home. I do offer shoe covers for workers and disposable slippers or flipflops for my guests. I have small children who were 1lb preemies that will get sick easily, so I'm not willing to take a chance on their health. I always get a side eye and/or snarky comments, but it's my house so my rules.
I think if people know ahead of time, it's problem solved. (I take tips 🤑.lol)
For workers no contractor in their rt mind would take off their shoes especially dealing with sheetrock or other materials it's a hazard so if something falls on their feet they can sue you 💯 nor someone working in pest control💯
@@69Fabulosity which is exactly why I said that have shoe covers for workers.
Also, just because someone invites me into their house, and it's traditional for them to take off their shoes in the house, doesn't mean that their floors are clean, so people need to make sure that they provide for people to be able to walk around their house, shoeless, without worrying about extraneous things on the floor or a dirty floor.
Love the real
I always take my shoes off when going to other ppls house. Although they always say dont take it off, I do it out of respect. Our shoes have so much dirt.
And honestly I really dont like ppl walking around my house in their shoes but I've never asked them to take it off. Maybe one day lol
I definitely ask people to remove their shoes because outside is nasty! I keep my home clean and would never have someone walking around without shoes on a filthy home floor. I understand if people don’t like it but they need to respect my home rules pls
I just swept, mopped, and vacuumed. I'm tired of these MFKN SHOES on MY MFKN FLOOR!!!!
I'm loving Garcelle in this color! Beautiful
Wasn't this discussed when Tamara was on The Real?
I think you have to respect the Host and Hostess,requirements.
In Japan, They have slippers at the door,and is disrespectful, not to take your shoes off.
I take my shoes off and put indoor slippers or skid proff socks on.
In many customs it considered,to bring, dirt I the home, from your shoes is bring bad spirits in their home.
i'm not a germaphobe or anything but i always remove my shoes indoors just out of habit. And i don't think it's rude to just say "you can leave your shoes here by the door" when a guest enters your home.
wow I was first
love you the real
Garcelle looks mighty fly today! 🔥 that color looks fantastic against her melanin 💕
Why is it so uncomfortable for the host to ask?! It drives me crazy when you see how immaculate it is and walk right in. Makes me cringe😳
@Honey the beautiful Pomeranian 🍯🐾 No what's nasty is walking around someone's house with no shoes on 🤮
@Honey the beautiful Pomeranian 🍯🐾true
I think it’s disrespectful to wear shoes in someone’s house tbh and just nasty
we needed Jeannie on this one for suree
I will respect house rules.
That said, I see both sides. It is much cleaner to leave shoes at the door. However, it's true lots of us do not want to walk around barefoot, especially in a house we're not accustomed to. If you're clumsy, you easily hit your toe or step on something. It's not good for the feet. Some of us are self-conscious as the ladies said, and sometimes the shoes are part of the outfit if there's a party. Some of my pants are literally the length for me to wear heels with them. So I just think it's nice to have shoe covers or give your guests a heads-up about house rules if they're new to your home. That way they can be sure to wear socks, get a pedicure, or whatever.
If you want that everyone inside your house follow YOUR rules of living just DONT INVITE PEOPLE 🤦🏻♀️ don’t ask that! That super rude and weird cause I don’t wanna see others people feet
I'm shocked whenever I watch American movies and they wear shoes inside the house; even going on the couch/bed with shoes. In Kenya, we remove them at the door including children
I’m 100% with Adrienne here. No shoes in my house but I’ll provide fresh socks, slippers, whatever need be but no outside shoes in my place.
I like the disposable shoe cover idea and will implement that when I get my own place. Its a win win for every one!

This is literally a whole culture and it’s about cleanliness.
