I always take my shoes off, unless I"m wearing dress shoes or I'm only in the house for a second.

I would never ever do that. That's so gross lol. Plus I have pretty feet so I almost never have anything on them at home. :)

So my feet don't get cold, or because I just forgot to remove them.

I never really noticed that. .. I rarely ever wear shoes inside a private house, and it wouldn't be the first time I have driven and gone to the local shops barefoot. I'm Australian, though ...

I'm an American. I never wear shoes inside because I'm more comfortable without them.

Not all Americans wear their shoes inside, I'm Asian so I was taught to always remove shoes when getting inside and slip into slippers, although now that I've moved here to the states I've gotten the habit of keeping my shoes on, most likely just laziness, I have to remove my shoes in other friend's houses

Well I was raised that you don't take off your shoes until the house owner says it's ok. mrmusicman247
Thats funy, because when I enter someone's home I always ask if they want me to take my shoes off. I don't like to assume that I can wear my shoes in their homes, dirtying up their carpet.

Becuase our feet stink. If all Americans took off their shoes when entering their house everyone would die.

How can it be comfortable to wear shoes all day? I always take them off, it's cleaner and feels freedomish.

I don't wear it inside but with cleaning carpets and floors so easy it makes sense for others to wear it.

Feet smell bad. Shoes a d socks tend to cover that up.
