    Living in Ohio (midwest U.S) its not entirely a yes or no and more of a “it depends”. Ive noticed older people assume shoes on but anyone under 40 will either ask or assume shoes off at the door. Theres also a layer of midwest nice to the whole exchange of not wanting to inconvenience the other person, so you get situations where a party will start with everyone wearing shoes, but end with everyone shoeless.

    I live in America.

    If you don’t take your shoes off in my house my wife will scatter your dismembered body across the hillside for the animals to feed on.

    This is so incorrect it’s funny. Shoes off in UK? When everyone has fucking carpets?

    Buncha weirdoes ITT. As soon as I get in the door, my house or yours, you can bet I’m stripping down to just my shoes and nothing else.

    Shoes off is both nicer and keeps the house cleaner. My family has always been on this side of things, except the folk in the Midwest, so I don’t care if this gets me on a list somewhere. What? Are gonna send ice to deport me?

    Hello shoes off gang, do you enjoy spreading your filthy mold spore colonies from other people’s feet to your floor where it can spread to everyone else? Because that’s how you spread athlete’s foot. Indoor slippers gang rise up
