[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think if you live in a country where the culture is to take off shoes, it's fine to expect people to take their shoes off. But if you are living in a country where that is not the cultural tradition, it is not polite to expect people who are not your own family or very intimate friends to take their shoes off. [b]Many people in the US see taking off shoes in public as impolite and disrespectful of others with whom you do not have a family type relationship. [/b]Respect can equal a certain level of formality to some, and walking around shoeless equals zero formality, and thus respect to them. [/quote] But if the people you are attempting to respect are asking you to take off your shoes, how is it respectful to them [b]not[/b] to? "Sachiko, I have too much respect for you to take off my shoes, even though you want me to". That makes no sense at all.[/quote]
