Are cultures that don't allow shoes indoors and instead go barefoot superior?

Example: Most Asian societies. You'd never step into someone's house or a place of worship wearing your shit encrusted shoes.

as far as I'm aware only yanks really do this

Yanks confirmed as subhuman?

We do this in Canada, but people wear socks usually

Well unlike Lithuania and other Asian countries we don't sleep on the floor here

I go to Michigan quite often and everybody seems to take their shoes off when they go into a house.

Where in America do they happily track mud and shit into their homes?

Where did this belief come from that Americans wear shoes indoors?
I don't know what you're talking about. Shoes go by the front door.

Superior? Doesn't feel that way to me.

What's wrong with cleaning anyhow? It's not like you can stop your skin from falling off and various forms of dust from coming into a house over time (well you could, but it's too much expensive high-tech shit vs just cleaning).

IMO this Asian habit is just because, well, untreated or slightly treated wooden floors have this tendency to get damaged by even just pebbles stuck in your shoe's profile.

Whereas our houses very often were built or equipped (carpets...) accounting for that.

>ywn get a mouthful of sweaty gook feet

sitcoms

Not politics. Sage

I have bad foot odor, what should I do for it other than avoiding going to someone's house??

Obviously. This is why Finlanders arent even white.

No. I don't want to have to be forced to look at or smell someone's disgusting feet. If they feel like keeping their shoes on, more power to them. Also, taking your shoes off in someone's home is a sign of closeness. Cousins that visit for a while, do this shit all the time, but people in America in general are just not related in that way. We are a melting pot and we're just not that personable with the random strangers living amongst us. This is different in nations that only have 1 identifiable race for the majority of the people (like in most Asian societies). If I lived around people of my background and we had that familial tie, I'd be alright with people coming over my house and taking off their shoes. They are like family to me. America is not a place like this. There are towns like this in America where everyone is like one big family, but that is not common in America.

I wear my shoes indoors. Always have. I might switch it up if I had carpet, but really who gives a shit? I don't track mud and shit through my house because I keep my damn shoes clean.

Perhaps the better question is what the fuck is everyone stepping in? Are your countries literal piles of shit? Ours is dirt, sand, and soil. And when I go walking, I mostly walk on concrete.

Shoes track dirt all over your house.

Bare feet track foot prints all over your house.

Socks or slippers are the only way to go.

Furthermore, if you own a pair of moccasins or some other slip-on shoe, you can be outside and doing chores, getting the mail, talking to a neighbor, in seconds, because you're already in your socks.

A lot of people say
>I can't take off my shoes inside! Do you have any idea how long it takes to lace up work boots?

So they just accept that their floors and carpets will look like shit. The red pill is to buy some cheap ass pull-on shoes and immediately transition to them as soon as you get home from work, so you can wear socks inside but still have the ability to slip on some shoes to do big boy stuff outside.

Appropriate socks so you sweat less (odor is usually bacteria and when you're healthy they generally live off more of your sweat than your skin, eh). Maybe open / vented shoes (there are various models, up to mesh sports shoes).

And well, an odor neutralizing spray in a small perfume bottle if you have a particularly big problem.

Well, I personally don't have a huge problem with most body odors (except with very particular diets or bacterial infections). I actually find many perfumes more displeasing.

really should start proofreading my long posts... ughh those fucking grammatical mistakes. People will think I'm a spic or something.

people who do not take their shoes off when indoors are degenerate. same goes with jackets and headwear.

You're low class if you wear shoes inside your home.

Like what the fuck is wrong with you, you probably have bedbugs too.

>Perhaps the better question is what the fuck is everyone stepping in? Are your countries literal piles of shit?

literally every single time the issue of shoes in the house comes up
every single time

there are no accidental steps in animal droppings, folks, you either live in Perpetually Pristine Perfection or your entire country is built and shaped from a bedrock of pure shit

every
time

Is that a cultural thing? I thought not spreading all the crap you stepped into all around your house was simply common sense

if you have bad foot odor then people will be smelling it regardless of whether you have shoes on or not.

Fuck you

you have foot odor BECAUSE you keep them in socks and shoes all day, idiot

LoL, funny I've never seen these threads before. Perhaps it's brought up every time because... it's a valid point? I've been to Canada, Toronto and Vancouver specifically, and it is basically shit. Tons of Asians and shitskins running all over. I imagine they poop in the streets there. Maybe that's what's happening?

You only wear shoes in dwellings that are so old and filthy that you don't want your feet touching. (i.e. old houses with disgusting indoor dogs that are too degenerate to use a litter box)

Normal people don't wear their shoes indoors.

Shiiieeet

TFW YOU USE YOUR RUNNING SHOES ALL THE TIME AND IF YOU TAKE THEM OFF IT STAAAAANKS.

I'm embarrassed. ;-;

not necessarily

wearing shoes inside the house and allowing your fucking Labrador inside the house so it can take a shit on the carpet is the high-point of Anglo-Saxon domestic life.

i expressly outlined in my post precisely why it's not a valid point

sometimes animals shit on sidewalks
sometimes people step in it without noticing
sometimes you wander into your house afterwards

if you always remove your shoes when you go indoors you never need to worry about this instead of rarely needing to worry about this. basic risk management but brainlets will insist a low chance is totally equal to no chance, and the only other option is a 100% guaranteed chance, as you've perfectly displayed yet again

i'm not replying to you again, fair warning

I don't have food odour and i only take my socks off at night.

>STAAAAANKS
>flag
>nigger
checks out

This, it's common practice to take your shoes off at the door, especially if it's someone elses home.

still, wearing shoes to cover the smell is like keeping your mouth shut all the time instead of brushing your teeth

> You're low class if you wear shoes inside your home.
I guess we're forever ideologically peasant plebs.

Though honestly, nice streets with good drainage and regular cleaning and floors with good construction make it nearly problem free to keep shoes on in most cases.

Not true lol. Shoes and socks are a good insulator of bad foot odor unless you have ferociously bad smelling feet.

I have to use steeltoed boots for work. The odor is masked when the shoes are on so it's not a huge problem. If I switch socks I can get away with nobody noticing as well, at least for a few hours. I use merino wool socks as I understand that they wick away sweat and help with odor? But I haven't seen a huge difference since I switched from cotton. Maybe a gypsy cursed me..

Civilized people have clean streets and don't need to take their shoes off.

But how do you deal with that. I only work 8 hours and rarely keep my boots on after working

>he doesn't build up sweat and bo after working out
I can just picture your disgusting unfit flabby body from here. Ugh.

I'm curious to know what is done when they recieve a doorstep seller. Are they forced to remove their shoes too?

Barefoot should be for the bedroom only.
You should have a pair of shoes for the outdoors and slippers for indoors.
Poorfags need not apply.

Being always barefoot both indoor and outdoor is the best choice

barefoot I guess. I'd even go out barefoot if it didn't look so uncivilized

>doorstep seller
Topkek. Why would you let some jew peddling shit into your house?

>>a pair of slippers dedice between poor and rich fag

taking your shoes off at the front door is a sure sign you're dealing with niggers, asians, and third worlders. same thing with people who wear flip flops and sandals everywhere. niggers, asians and third worlders.

A better analogy would be keeping your mouth closed so no one can smell your breath.

It's no problem keeping your shoes on most of the time, so I guess you can say it works.

Civilized people don't step in shit to begin with. The indoors of my house is clean, my garage is clean, my car floor is clean, parking lots and buildings for work/church/stores/etc. are clean. I take off my shoes in my home for comfort, not cleanliness. If I needed to quickly grab something from my house, I don't take off my shoes, get the item, then put them back on. I walk though my house with my shoes on, grab it, and go.

If I walk though my lawn, then I'll check my shoes first before stepping inside, but I don't go out of my way to put my shoes in mud or shit. Honestly, it's the opposite: I'll take my shoes off to go step on my lawn, because the grass feels great

Who the fuck wears shoes in a house? It would be a nightmare to clean. Also socks, not bare feet inside.

I was talking about using the word 'stank'

That's one example. That could be an an electrician or a plumber.

Ya, but most likely.

It's the main thing keeping the water needed to feed more bacteria at your feet. It'd evaporate otherwise and the population of bacteria that is doing anything much would be much lower.

Even a bit more sweat getting sucked up doesn't ultimately help a lot, you'll still get a wet surface and the interior of the shoe will also still get humid to wet eventually.

Well, you could still have silver or other antibacterial substances in your socks. But eh, maybe just rinse & dry your feet, swap socks & use better vented shoes once your work day is over.

>not greeting strangers at your door with a quick and forceful we arent interested in buying anything
Smh mate if you don't go first they might get you with their sob story.

my house is no - shoes allowed

He is talking about your grammar.

>Wearing your shoes indoors

I simply cannot comprehend doing something like this. Americans deserve nothing less but complete and total annihilation.

>Shoes indoors
Shitting your place like a retard
>No shoes
Too dumb to invents papcie
>Papcie
Fucking superior Slav culture

i'm wearing shoes right now

I can fix my grammar your flabs are forever and a constant reminder of the white race's upcoming demise. Enjoy.

>stepping in shit
I bet you don't even walk outside barefoot
>tfw europoors don't know what its like to walk a clean river innawoods and catch crawdads with their bare hands
If you don't have two inches of callous on your feet you're a jew

I take my shoes off if I'm gonna go on a bed or couch otherwise I don't think about it really

Barefoot is degenerate

movies n' shit

Maybe it's because my family is from recent-ish Polish immigrants (my grandparents were the first generation born in america) but I always found it weird that most of my friends don't require me to take off my shoes. It was never allowed in my house

typical dumb ass eurofag question about America.

It is situational. When I come home, I take my shoes off. If my brother comes to visit, he takes his shoes off. If i have people over for dinner and everyone is dressed nice, they keep their shoes on (there is nothing dumber looking than wearing nice clothes and then having your socks on).

why are eurofags so fucking dumb?

I have a pair of shiny black dress shoes that I wear indoors.
Poor fag.

>Barefoot is degenerate
Not inviting qt's to your house and having them walk around barefoot.

Wtf is wrong with France.

warm hospital style socks with the rubber grips on the sole are the master race

>(there is nothing dumber looking than wearing nice clothes and then having your socks on).


This is called autism

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_spectrum

House sandals and outside shoes?
Walking barefoot is not healthy.

Nigger what

You don't go barefoot in Japan. You keep your socks on, you fuck.

fuck off degenerate

Barefoot is UGLY

Don't want to have foot near my nose or Eyes ..

Footfag detected

>not sliding to increase your speed

This is pretty common among upper-middle class and upper class families in U.S., and becoming more common.

Barefoot is in fact degenerate. Why would I want my qt ruining her perfect feet on a dirty hard floor?

They are superior.

>on a dirty hard floor
How about you try keeping your floors clean? It shouldn't be too difficult if you aren't wearing shoes indoors.

Yes we are.

These are not the feet of someone who walks around barefoot. I guarantee you that she wears indoor shoes.

quads of qualification, this is truth.

Floors will always have dirt and dust on them no matter how OCD you are. If you owned a house you would know, but you don't believe in private property... so.

Do you really expect people to take their shoes off in a movie set?
There is shit everywhere, like the lights and cameras.

Yes, since all cultures who don't take the shoes off are absolutely inferior.

...

>wanting stuff stuck in a carpet

Disgusting. Hardwood or concrete floors are the superior race. Better looking, cleaner, more hygienic, and longer lasting. The only excuse to have anything else is if you're a high time preference poorfag nigger or just want to flip the house.

Stop masturbating to foot porn you weeaboo cuckold

I own a house with terrazzo floors, very good insulation, and a good air filtration system. It's pretty easy to keep the floors spotless/dustless by sweeping every few days.

Its just basic hygiene you filthy pig.

Shoes come off at the door at my apt. You can either go barefoot, socks or slippers. It keeps the dirt from being tracked in as well as whatever I or friends step in while out. Makes cleaning that much easier.

I have friends who wear their shoes everywhere in their apt and it's literally disgusting. They just don't care nor do did they learn the basic life skills growing up of how to keep their living space clean.

You have to use a wet mop to remove dirt and dust properly, sweeping will not work. Go now, walk around in your Section-8 apartment for a few hours, your feet will be black. Do it for years and your feet will be calloused and cracked.
If you were not a complete pleb you would do this

I wear socks in doors, and sandals if I want to go to my backyard

sock master race

Our country is mud or muddy slush for the most part of the year.

peasant

>mfw non-americans walk in shit

Why is there shit in your house?

Aren't you meant to do that at walmart?
