[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not particularly weird, but I’m not a fan of situations where the host asks you to remove shoes and there’s no advance warning that it’s a shoe-free house and no provision of slippers. From cold feet, to holey socks, to athlete’s foot, there are a lot of reasons why some of us are more comfortable with shoes on and need some sort of heads-up if we must remove them.[/quote]

This is such a common expectation now its weird to be put off by it. And as there’s so much supporting evidence of all the literal crap shoes bring in-I find shoe wearing homes gross. [/quote]

This.  I would never expressly ask someone to remove their shoes but I'd hope they'd be polite enough to notice our shoe shelf by our front door with everyone's everyday shoes on it, the fact that we have all removed our shoes, etc..... [/quote]

They're politely assuming that you wouldn't impose your footwear choices on your guests, or that if you're really obsessive about it, you'd politely let them know beforehand.[/quote]
