Ok, but I'm just saying I consider that a negative personality trait.

It's controlling and I just think it's weird to have a bunch of barefoot adults at a dinner party. In my culture, when someone is a guest at your house, you extend courtesy to them first. It's like guests washing their own dishes, it's nice if they do it without being asked, but forcing them to do it is gauche and indicative of a lack of generosity. That's just my opinion.

That's funny, because I'm almost the opposite. If I go to someone's house where they make everyone take their shoes off when they come in, I consider that a big red flag.

You gotta protect the family from those ghostly baseball players I guess.

I don't see why we need any more reason than because it's really awesome.

That's probably a huge part of it. Tracking visible dirt is not an issue in my area and shoes off is very uncommon.
