Remove your shoes before entering the house . . . an "is-shoe" of contention!

When Marash Girl was living in Manhattan, and later in Cambridge, the custom was for visitors and residents alike, before entering, to remove their shoes and leave the shoes outside or just inside the doorway . . . thus, when Marash Girl married Marash Boy, she expected the same custom to prevail, but as in all marriages, opposites attract! Marash Boy saw nothing more anikramlī than requesting guests to remove their shoes before entering the house. Guess who won that argument!!!
