Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house?

  Foyer, mudroom, entrance way. If you don’t have a small cube between a storm door and a front door, then just as you come inside.

  This isn’t some privilege thing, it’s literally just an area of your house or apartment. Different environments have different entryways for the houses there. No need to be so hostile just because you don’t know what a “mudroom” is.

  Then you just take it off at the front door area. Have some sandals you can slip on in half a second if you need to take the trash out. “Check your privilege.” How fucking cringey.

    Excuse the fuck out of me for not having a whole separate room for that.

      I grew up in Texas. I understand your confusion. Houses are oriented a little differently here, but think of the “mudroom” as the garage. You know how you have a side door and a front door? And the side door is usually sort of attached to the garage, basement, or maybe laundry room? It is just that. A lot of people have a spot right inside that door, off to the side, for piling shoes. Otherwise you have a rack when you walk in, or you can use the closet right by your front door. It isn’t really a separate room. Good idea to have mats on both sides of the door. For whatever reason people are obsessed with split levels up here, so there is easier access to basement type areas.

        Excuse me but my cardboard box only has one room. Check your privilege!

  You don’t have a room for storing mud? Peasant

  We’ve got a mat in our hallway that effectively serves as one. A mud room is an area to be wet or dirty and clean off before entering the house… for moat of us it’s just part of our hallway.

      I am the image of privilege. When I’m in Chipotle I always order extra guac.

  These size 11 shoes were put on me as a toddler, I’ve never taken them off since.

  How I aspire to one day have a mudroom so I finally have a place to take off my shoes.

  Real talk, just leave em by whatever you seem to be the entrance to your home.
