When I was a kid, I was occasionally affronted, on television or in the movies, with the bizarre concept of “drinking out of a lady’s slipper.” This strange act was always presented as something one would do while in a state of joyous inebriation (New Years? Champagne?), and it had vague erotic implications to it.
The whole idea gave me nightmares. It seemed inscrutable, bizarre, and disgusting to my younger self. In fact, it still seems so. Am I strange?
You are not alone in this. Feet are gross therefore shoes are gross. Drinking from a foot prison is disgusting. Yuck is right.

It’s a decadent up to disgusting practice performed by people with a pervert twitch. Like eating the brains of a living monkey (seen that one on Geography Channel once; even more pervert and disgusting practice of our “Upper Class”).
