MODERATORS
First, I need to confirm if it's true or just a television trope.
Do North Americans really keep their shoes on while lounging on their beds, or is it something directors do for whatever technical reason?
If true, then I can't get over it - and I come from a outside-shoes-indoors culture.
I'm American and I don't know a single adult who does this. Even kids take off their shoes before walking around the house, typically.
Well, maybe typical for you and a subset of Americans. We wore shoes in the house as kids; we only took them off if they were clearly muddy.
