[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The earlier PP claiming that Germans don’t take off their shoes inside a home and that it’s considered rude to do so must have been raised in a proverbial trailer park. I lived in Germany for years, am married to a German, have tons of German friends, and they absolutely take off their shoes. The boys and men also sit down to pee inside the house, because it’s cleaner to do it that way instead of spraying pee droplets all around the place that you may or may not see. The only ones who don’t take off shoes are kids living in dorms or share housing at colleges (too many parties, people in and out all day, and let’s face it they’re drunk much of the time) and trashy people who have no class.[/quote] I am also married to a German and every single German I’ve ever met has insisted on a shoes off home. Literally every single one. They even have a word for it: “Hausschuhe” or house shoes.[/quote]
