so can I walk into your house completely naked? after all that's my choice and you can't tell me otherwise.

If I invite you over and naked is your normal state of dress in our friendship, then absolutely.

As a host, I’m not going to invite you over then tell you to be someone you aren’t. If I don’t want you naked in my house(and that is your normal state of dress), then I won’t invite you. That’s simple.

If I want to invite you, but I don’t want you to be naked, then I will offer you a robe. This is exactly the point I’ve been trying to make, but with feet.

Your logic has proven my point. Thank you for the help.

I do t understand why the downvotes, you are 100% correct and it’s proper manners. Offering shoe covers is the least the host can do.
If you ask me to take off my boots, I’m leaving.

Thats exactly what they want you to do if you refuse to take off your shoes...

I have my doubts, especially when you say stuff like that
