That there might probably the difference in the shoes on vs shoes off culture.
People who think it’s disrespectful to treat someone’s home as less important or people who think it’s disrespectful to treat the guest as less important.
To me someone’s home takes priority over the guest, as it’s just what I was raised by. A house is someone’s home and extremely important to them, whereas a guest is not required to be there it’s a privilege to be invited inside and not having shoes really isn’t a big deal to ask for us.
Right, but I don’t wear shoes in my own home. I’m not asking them to do anything I’m not doing. I’d also like them to not piss in my plants, despite them being a guest.
Idrgaf, but generally I see it as disrespectful to demand a guest remove their shoes. They are a guest in my home.

Agreed. I just think the guest takes precedence. It is a privilege to have them, and not taking off shoes isn’t really a big deal to us.

My guests would not piss in my plants anymore than they would participate in exaggerated hyperbole.

My guests wouldn’t come in with their shoes on though
Sweet. I wouldn’t demand that they did. Lol.
Put you shoes back on in my house!
I don’t see why then being a guest would mean you should invite them to track dog shit and greasy dirt all over your house, though
I take in guests as they are and don’t demand anything more of them than what would deny them as guests to begin with.
It’s not much of a demand. Do your guests usually struggle with basic physical activities, like bending over, or sitting on a stool/bench?
It’s not a demand at all from me and no need to be rude, but yes, some do.
Also, I have actual dogs and they don’t take off their shoes either.
