I don’t want to go to someone’s house with a formal cocktail dress and be barefoot.

And I don’t want to walk around in my dress while wearing random slippers that have been used by other people.

Do people a favor and not have them over to your house in the first place. It’s really not necessary.

I agree. We are strictly a no shoes house and I have absolutely no problem asking people to take their shoes off when they come in. I also don’t host large gatherings because as can be seen from the thread some people are uncomfortable about taking shoes off. But I don’t knew why these people are so offended by taking their shoes off. It’s not as if we are asking them to take off their clothes or a head covering!

So you REALLY can't understand why someone would be annoyed that they showed up to a party at a house in a nice dress and heels and were then told to take their shoes off and as a result they have to walk around a stranger's house barefoot for the rest of the evening? You can't fathom why someone would be bothered by that? Even after 20 pages of people giving multiple reasons why it's an issue? Because if you can't, then that speaks volumes.

DP, but no. All the excuses about ailments, maybe. But just to be "annoyed" because your outfit looks different than with your high heels? That's ridiculous. Millions (billions?) of other people on earth manage just fine.

It's not the "outfit"; it's walking around someone's house in your bare feet. It's embarrassing.

Why are bare feet embarrassing? Do you constantly wear gloves so no one ever sees your hands? A scarf so no one ever sees your neck? What is wrong with your feet that you're so shamefully embarrassed about them? It's a pretty normal part of your body that people see.

Dp do you wear shoes on your hands? Hands and feet are totally different!

Why are your feet so nasty? Take care of them.

Who says my feet are 'nasty?' I have plantar fasistis ( not looking up spelling) my feet are clean however I don't want to walk around your house bare footed.

A kid tracked dog poop all over my house after not taking shoes off. You win some you lose some.

Gosh, if only there were a way of looking at your shoes and seeing if there's dog poop or mud or whatever on there.

Gosh as if kids are always on the ball. Ever met a real child?

No one has said you shouldn’t ask kids to take their shoes off. Literally no one.

Never and if it did, I would leave. They might as well ask me to take off my clothes.

If being barefoot to you is the equivalent of being naked, you might consider some therapy. Because uh, that's beyond Puritan.

dp I also wouldn't want to walk around in bare feet.

Suddenly nobody wears socks anymore.

It’s 100 degrees out and 90% humidity here during the summer, ding dong. But I’m actually happy to cover your pristine floors with my foot sweat if that’s what you really want.

You and your sweaty corn riddled nasty bunion fungus feet would never be invited.

Dp. That sounds fine to me! ( not being invited) your parties aren't as interesting as you think they are.

What dress shoes do you wear socks with? OP is hosting a dinner party for a private school. I wouldn’t expect to show up to such a party in tennis shoes.

When do people see bare feet other than at a swimming pool?

Literally all summer whenever someone wears sandals? Do you think a flip flop covers so much of a foot that it's wildly different?

If I’m going somewhere and I know I’ll be wearing sandals, I’d make sure my feet looked good (i.e. I’d get a pedicure). If I’m going somewhere and I’m wearing close-toes shoes I’m not worried about my chipped nail polish but I’m going to be embarrassed when told to take my shoes off and show my feet, especially when I’m dressed nicely.

20 plus pages of people telling you they don’t want to go barefoot in your house. Stop asking why and acknowledge that not everyone feels the same way you do. Asking people to take their shoes off is not the norm in America. You have now been told this. Do with it what you want, but don’t act all shocked when people either don’t come to your parties (if they’ve been warned) or are upset when you surprise them by asking them to take their shoes off. I have been to hundreds of social functions and I have never once been asked to take my shoes off. If you want to insist that everyone you know does it, go ahead. But OP is talking about people she doesn’t know.

You don't find it disgusting to walk around someone's house barefoot with 20 other people also barefoot in there? Ok...

Also, people's clothes are generally tailored to be worn with shoes. I have several dresses that would drag all over the floor if worn without heels.

But again, there is clearly no helping you and you don't care what other people think.

And yet no one seems to care in the reverse for the hosts rules and home. Glass houses and stones and all that.

It’s very simple - if you expect people to take their shoes off at your house then either don’t host or warn people that this will be required. I swear must be pretending to be this stupid.
