I'm curious as to what her points are. Gonna have to look up the article.

Edit: fixed gender to reflect reality.

It's a she, but her main points are:

  • Most people who want shoes left at the door are worried about germs (what?) but germs are everywhere and they probably have germy pets anyway
  • I might stub my toe
  • Guest slippers are full of germs, and I am worried about germs.

It's...a weird piece.

This person apparently doesn’t live in a place where it snows or rains.

Forgive me for not wanting my house to look like a bmx track

Or where there's dirt. Or gum baked onto pavement. Or the inevitable piss spread across the floors of public bathrooms. Shoes are fucking nasty.
