To be honest, I've never really had enough situations to figure out where my hospitality lies. Guests are pretty rare, but sooner or later I'll be moving out of my parents house and finding my own place in the world. My belief system has little to do with it, but here it is:
Enemies may be invited in if they have not been so recently. However, I expect them to either be civil, or to GTFO.
Friends: Mi casa es su casa. smile But I will not baby you forever. You're welcome, but probably not at three thirty AM just because you want a snacktime. If something went down, feel free to stay at my place for a couple of days. Just don't become a leech; I hate being taken advantage of.
Bedroom: You do not go into my bedroom without my permission. If you are uncertain of whether you have this, ask. Some people have a non-spoken permanent consent. [semi-related; my daddy always knocks on the door and asks before he opens it. : D]
Bathroom: If using the toilet, wipe off any blemishes you leave upon the seat, flush, spray fragrance / deodorizer at your discretion, and wash your hands with soap and water. Sing Happy Birthday if you must.
Edit: Grotesque Panda brings up hand sanitizer. That's acceptable too. So long as your hands get clean somehow.

SuperOtaku TeaDidikai SuperOtaku To be honest, I've never really had enough situations to figure out where my hospitality lies. Guests are pretty rare, but sooner or later I'll be moving out of my parents house... How about your hospitality in relation to those hosting you? Aka, your parents? Still really rare. =| Once a year my mom's younger, mentally challenged brother comes here and he makes very little noise, so... yeah. sweatdrop And my dad's family never comes over. He's always off in another country somewhere. You are imbibing in their hospitality.

Okay, Violet was nice enough to help me realize where I missed something. ^_^;
I've never really been given any particular rules to follow, except don't get into too much trouble, don't make too much noise, and if I do something I'm not supposed to do, 'fess up.
But I do'nt get into trouble, make a lot of noise or do a lot of things I'm not supposed to...
Sometimes I help out with dinner, I take care of my own laundry and I don't plug in a bunch of things if they aren't being used at the particular moment. My space is my job to keep clean and... That's about it. .___.; Pretty average 'you're a big kid now, handle it yourself' thing. I also take care of breakfast, lunch and snacks, if I want them. Edit: I also help with taking out the trash, especially if it's my trash.

Collowrath -Tsukiyo-Moon Maiden When it comes to the kitchen, it would be nice if you helped out. It's a common courtesy thing I guess. I would say the opposite - my food is prepared in a particular way. Purity laws and all. It would be too much like baby sitting for me to hold someone's hand through my kitchen to ensure the lines of purity aren't crossed. Also, my goal is for guests to relax and get their appetites worked up. wink Not with the food but with doing the dishes. I dunno. It's something my grandma would have do when I was younger. She'd wash the dishes and I'd dry them. I think everything I do currently stems from my experiences of staying with her and my grandpa. sweatdrop

I didn't know where things went, so I handed them back to her so she could place them. I used to hate drying the dishes though. >.< But it was nice helping out a bit. :3
