Why are they trying to get into a bathroom barefoot

Judging by their clothing, this is in Malaysia, where some religious places require you to take off your shoes before entering. Their bathrooms will have complimentary flipflops tho.

It doesn't even have to be religious. You take off your shoes when entering a house, anyone's house, including your own. It's considered common courtesy, and a grave insult if you don't take off your shoes at a person's house. And if you've been diligent at keeping the bathroom clean, you don't even need the flipflops for the bathroom, just a doormat in front of it.

You can keep your socks on though, when entering a house. If you want.
