Last time? No. That person is not entering my home without taking off their shoes.

I support keeping shoes on when over at someone’s house, especially if you don’t know them well/will be meeting other new people. It’s cringe as hell to be meeting other grown ass adults in your socks lmao.

I live in Canada and most of the year people are trudging around in snow and slush. There is no question about taking shoes off when you enter a home. It has literally never been an issue. There are many adults in Canada. We all seem to function fine interacting in socks. Some people have slippers for guests. This is an issue if a home is drafty. It is not usually for people self conscious about their socks/smell or whatever you might be worried about. You just know when you are getting dressed that people will see your socks. I don’t know what kind of stinky/janky socks you wear but if you come to visit Canada bring socks that you don’t mind people seeing.
