And do any of us really want to prolong a goodbye by stooping down for ages while our friends hover nearby, politely holding the door open? If mi casa really is su casa , my loafers are staying put. Why not just go to the party in a bathrobe and face mask? But of course everyone must wipe their soles before entering — are we animals?!
No, we are not, as outlined earlier. Frankly, if a small speck of dirt is tracked into a house, the onus falls on the host for not having a top-quality mat. Bristles, folks — we need bristles. Wearing shoes indoors provides one bleeding obvious benefit: foot support! Contrary to popular belief among firewalkers, our feet are delicate and precious commodities, and must be protected thusly.
Essentially, protecting our feet at all times will ensure top-notch foot health! Clean the bathroom? Bring in the washing? A study by Charles Gerba, a microbiologist and professor at the University of Arizona, and The Rockport Company found large numbers of bacteria both on the bottom and inside of shoes. Although some scientists suggest this concern is overblown, some of the bacteria found on the shoes such as E. Coli can cause intestinal and urinary tract infections, meningitis and diarrhea while other bacteria such as Klebsiella Pneumonia, can cause pneumonia as well as wound and bloodstream infections.
A convenient new shoe that recently entered the market are Muvez shoes. Muvez shoes are indoor slippers with a detachable outdoor sneaker sole. These shoes would be a nice compromise for those that do not currently remove their outdoor shoes when at home.
The outdoor sneaker sole easily comes off when you arrive at home turning into an indoor slipper and then quickly attaches when you leave to become an appropriate outdoor shoe. Plantar Warts are easy to contract. A wart is a thickened and elevated small growth of skin that develops when the skin becomes infected by the human papillomavirus HPV. Warts can develop anywhere on the foot, but typically occur in areas of direct pressure under the foot, such as the ball and the heel.
Hard and thick callus can grow over the wart lesions as they grow inward and make them more painful. You can catch the virus from a spouse or roommate if they have plantar warts. Do not walk barefoot inside and do not wear outside shoes in doors. It usually produces itchy, dry, scaling skin. In more severe cases, inflammation, cracks, and blisters may form. If left untreated, it can infect the nails leading to discolored and brittle fungal nails.
Like plantar warts, this can be contagious and brought into your home by outdoor shoes. Last but not least, I highly recommend not wearing outdoor shoes particularly if you have young children crawling on floors or have allergies, because pollen can be transferred to floors, especially to carpets.
However, I do recommend wearing indoor shoe gear in the house as it protects our feet from a number of ailments, including:. Many American homes and apartments are also not built with shoe removal in mind. Thus, most Americans would not remember to take their shoes off in the doorway.
As such, it is normal for people to walk in with their shoes and later walk out without raising eyebrows. Most white people keep pets inside their houses.

This has for long been a lifestyle choice and behavior that is widely embraced.
For most cultures, this can be seen as strange, but in most cities, this has become the new normal. Still, the decision about whether one should wear shoes in the house or not is not written in stone for all white people. Instead, it is an option that some have chosen to live by while others are very harsh about it. There are lots of reasons why this has been the case, and the major ones are: Adjustments to life in the cities Most Americans live in the cities, which are generally mud-free areas with lots of pavements and tarmacked roads.
