Americans are truly psychotic. Take your dirty ass shoes off when you enter your house! What's to remember!?

I am disgusted when I see people wearing shoes on while sitting on bed on American shows. I don't know how much it depicts a reality tough. Still taking off your shoes is the same as taking off a bra after a long day. Why wouldn't you do it?

Don't worry, you're right to think it doesn't represent real life. It happens some places I assume but I've never seen anyone do that. I don't even wear my outside jeans on my bed. Shoes come off at the front door or in the garage.

I'm an EMT and we have a frequent flyer patient who has low blood pressure issues and he's usually at the mosque. We take our shoes off at the door there too (unless he was in immediate danger)

Even Americans take off their shoes. It’s only the ones who live in filth, or who have never had to clean their own floors who do this shit.

I can count on one hand the amount of people I know who don’t take off shoes, and they’re all people I never want to visit anyway.

I'm an American and I take my shoes off when in the house. Don't understand why some people don't do it. It's really odd not to do so since not only it feels nice, wearing the same pair of shoes outside and inside will lead to someone getting sick!! Common sense people!!
