If you got any sideways glances in there, it's probably because of that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220684 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 14:11:43 +0000 Minnie_Girl 220684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It drives me completely batty to have a conversation with someone who's wearing sunglasses. It wouldn't necessarily bother me to see you wearing them inside, but I wouldn't want to talk to you, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220673 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:59:58 +0000 Mrsbells 220673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont think its rude per se but I think its a fashion faux pas. I always take my shades off as soon as I get out of the sun otherwise my eyes wont adjust when I go back outside </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220666 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:56:52 +0000 JerricaBenton 220666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's kind of rude just because you can't tell if the person is looking at you or not. Also, most banks I've been to don't want you to wear sunglasses inside - I guess they want to make sure all those cameras get a good look! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220506 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:39:48 +0000 SugarplumsMom 220506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use to not be aware of this and would wear sunglasses all the time (I also had an eye problem at one point so I had to wear sunglasses). I never really noticed if ppl wore them indoors or not (as long as it was morning). But after I've lived in Asia for a year, I'm now hyper aware of it. It was rude to wear glasses indoors because ppl wanted to see your eyes. Now I can't help it. Even if I want to wear them on a sunny day, I find myself automatically taking them off in the shade. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220504 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:38:55 +0000 mediagirl 220504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tricycle: I wear glasses and prescription sunglasses. If I go into a store for a short period of time, I will not swap the glasses out. I figure if someone has a problem with it, they can deal. I don't think badly about people who leave their sunglasses on in stores or the post office. What if you have sensitive eyes and it's bright even in the store and the glasses help you?</p> <p>My opinion: wear 'em. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220495 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:35:57 +0000 Mrs. Lantern 220495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't because it obstructs my vision! People do tend to look snobby when they wear it indoors, though it's hard to pinpoint the reason why they do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220470 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:25:11 +0000 littlebug 220470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it's rude, necessarily, but I do think if you're going to be speaking to someone, common courtesy dictates that you should be able to engage in eye contact. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220453 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:15:46 +0000 ladyfingers 220453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like it. My bank actually has a large sign telling people to remove hats and sunglasses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220438 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 12:08:27 +0000 heffalump 220438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm extremely sensitive to light, especially when I have a migraine, so I'm known to wear sunglasses inside. I don't care if people think it's rude .... sometimes I wish people would try to be a little less judgy because you really don't know everyone's situation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220324 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:24:41 +0000 MrsTiz 220324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. there is no reason to wear them indoors. If you don't like your look without mascara, wear mascara :) that's like the easiest thing ever haha I wish thats all I needed!</p> <p>I cannot stand when people wear sunglasses inside, I think it's so rude and comes of very snobbish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220317 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:19:24 +0000 LuLu Mom 220317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I might run into the gas station with them still on, but always remove them before speaknig with someone, or stick them on top of my head when I get to the counter. I think it is rude not too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220292 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:08:52 +0000 Running Elley 220292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear my sunglasses inside all the time when I’m at the grocery store, bank, etc. They are prescription but they don’t look like it so I’m sure some people think I’m being rude/pretentious but I can’t see without them and I don’t take the time to switch out to my regular glasses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220256 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 10:47:33 +0000 Sammyfab 220256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it's rude but whenever I see someone wearing sunglasses indoors I think they're weird..and maybe a little pretentious. I am more likely to notice you wearing your sunglasses than your lack of makeup! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-220175 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 10:15:54 +0000 Alivoo01 220175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think wearing sunglasses indoors is weird and rude. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219621 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 21:51:49 +0000 eeh 219621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to judge people on this too much because you can't tell if they're prescription or not. I've definitely run into a gas station or store real quick and didn't want to take my entire purse so I would grab my wallet and go only to get in and realize I forgot to change my glasses. I feel rude but if I take them off, I can't see.</p> <p>I also feel like I'm being rude when I'm at a drive thru (especially the bank) and don't take them off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219463 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:44:05 +0000 MamaMoose 219463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I think anytime you are speaking with someone inside you should take your sunglasses off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219462 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:44:03 +0000 Mrs. Stroller 219462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't get mad, but kind of...I was taught never to wear a hat indoors or to converse with someone while wearing sunglasses. I break that rule when I'm outside in the glaring sunlight though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219453 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:41:19 +0000 jedeve 219453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. My husband does it sometimes if he forgets his regular ones. But I think it suggests that you are disengaging. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219429 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:36:36 +0000 Freckles 219429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only dislike it if it is really dark inside.</p> <p>My husband wears prescription sunglasses, and he once had to wear them to a MOVIE THEATRE because he had lost his regular glasses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219411 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:32:07 +0000 chopsuey 219411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear sunglasses when I go into stores all the time. HAHA. usually when I don't have make up on too :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219290 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:50:27 +0000 regberadaisy 219290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I hate it when ppl wear shades indoors! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219286 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:49:20 +0000 Rubies 219286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to work in retail when I was in university and often women would come in wearing their dark designer sunglasses and I used to feel so small. It's awkward trying to make eye contact when you can't see someone's eyes! LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219284 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:48:39 +0000 Andrea 219284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel rude when I wear them inside so I always take them off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-rude-to-wear-my-sunglasses-indoors#post-219279 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:47:54 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 219279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>During the summer, I frequently skip makeup even though I hate how my eyelashes look without mascara. So, when I'm out and about, I wear sunglasses. I want to keep them on even indoors, but I felt really rude wearing them into the bank today. </p> <p>What do you think? Is it rude to keep my sunglasses on indoors, considering I don't have celebrity status? </p>
