you got to explain it in a way @[email protected] can conceptualize your concern:
Foot molds are sometimes be more dangerous than local dirt locals have biodiverse defenses against.
In carpet homes, even more dangerous.
blatantly LeninsOvaries can’t afford a place WITHOUT carpet: a biohazard.
I’d prefer none of those then and force the use of slippers.
But I will never understand how people are okay with living in places with carpeted floors. I would rather have bare concrete than carpet on the floor.
Because it’s not the end of the world? Shoes, carpet, no shoes, who cares - nothing fucking happens, you don’t catch leprosy and die.
I could maybe see an argument in countries where it snows and shit, because lots of water could make it soggy and potential for mold but otherwise it’s fine.
Here in Australia it’s not even uncommon to walk around on the footpath/shops in barefeet. Slightly less common these days but you still see it and no one bat’s an eye.
I never suggest you would catch leprosy and die.
I live in a country where it often rains and (used to) snow in the winter. And even if it did not carpets are hard to clean. You cannot just nicely wipe them like hardwood or laminate or tile floors. You need specialised equipment to do it. We have a rug at home and even with everyone wearing slippers inside it gets dirty and impossible to clean.
I just cannot imagine myself being comfortable with a acarpwted floor.
If someone came into my house, took off their shoes, and started walking on my carpets with their sweaty little pigs, I’d be uncomfortable
That is still much better than not taking of your shoes. Sure slippers is the best option but socks and barefoot is absolutely fine.
Also carpeted floors are disgusting.
If it’s raining and muddy, then sure, but I prefer the dry outside dirt to wet foot sweat. I don’t have a steam cleaner.
Shoes that have walked in piss stains and half-washed-by-rain away dogshit, spit and other, yummy!
But also, who goes to someone barefoot?

Bare concrete is expensive.
What is under your carpet then?
