gustofwind@lemmy.world 2 days agoWhat if you have to quickly go inside and grab something? Do you take your shoes off for that or just walk inside?
Shoes are ok inside they’re not mandatory

Yeah shoes off. It’s a pain in the butt.
However, you often wear shoes that are easier to take off / put on.
Also, you just learn to really check that you’ve got everything before you put your shoes on.
I have a pair of slip-ons I’ll throw on when i need a quick trip outside
I take one off and hop. Or throw a rug on the floor and shuffle.

Yes I take my shoes off? I don’t want to dirty up my floors

Everyone cleans their floors 🤷♀️ the common living spaces don’t have to be pristine and most people don’t wear their shoes upstairs to their bedrooms where you would more reasonably expect an immaculate room

Everyone cleans their floors but obviously the floors get a lot dirtier a lot quicker if you just waltz in with your shoes you’ve walked around in outdoors.
Maybe it’s a level of cleanliness thing but I wouldn’t want my floors to be as dirty as they get when walking around with shoes on tbh. If it doesn’t bother someone then it doesn’t bother them ofc.

Could be a level of cleanliness thing in part but I also think you’re overestimating just how dirty things get
Very few people take muddy boots inside lol but there’s also little reason to care about mild dust and dirt you can just sweep.
I mean kids can actually develop asthma if your house is too clean so I’m highly skeptical what is almost always an unnoticeable amount of dust and dirt actually matters with regards to a healthy standard of cleanliness
