I've seen people work themselves into knots trying to figure out how a house could possibly be clean enough to walk around in one's socks. That indoor floors are somehow so intrinsically dirty that one simply must keep one's shoes on to avoid contamination. And I always wanted to ask: How else would we keep our floors clean?
- cout 3y agoI wear socks indoors so I can use them to clean my floor.

And if not, a bit of exposure to germs is fine. Most diseases are hand and air transmitted. And in my anecdotal experience germ freaks are more suck then dirty people. But maybe I'm just biased.
- spondylosaurus 3y agoHa, I used to live in a condo with all hardwood floors, and we only ever wore shoes in the entryway by the front door (to take them on and off). When I'd mop the rest of the condo with those disposable Swiffer mop pads, the mop pads would only get a little dingy, but when I'd mop the one specific part of the entryway where we wore shoes, the mop pads would instantly turn dark grey, almost black. No shoes in the house. Ever!!!
