Omg I love this question.
I imagine that this varies WIDELY by individual and culture, whether it’s by ethnic culture or just family culture.
I would say generally, no. Americans do not put on shoes right out of bed and wear them until just before we go to sleep.
Most people I know take off their shoes soon after getting home in the evening, and put them on just before leaving the house. Pretty much every home I’ve ever been in has “the shoe pile” that sort of lives near the door or wherever you make your first stop after coming home (my shoe pile lives under my dining-room table). Some people do wear shoes when they’re just hanging around the house, but lots don’t. I’m barefoot right now, for example.
I often put on my shoes in my bedroom simply because that’s where my non-everyday shoes live. If they’re heels I might just carry them downstairs and put them on when I’m getting my shit together to leave the house.
I think I’m fairly comfortable saying that most people don’t wear shoes around their own house, but it’s not necessarily weird if you do.
It might be considered kinda rude to take off your shoes in someone else’s house. I generally do not take off my shoes when I’m a guest in someone’s house. The less I know the person, the more likely I am to take off my shoes (I might take them off if I were hanging at my bestie’s house, maybe, but generally no). And NOBODY would take off their shoes if they were a guest at a party. It’d be like – inflicting your feet on people. Again, this is super culturally variable.
