How does the shoe game work?

The couple sit back to back, each holding one of their own shoes and one of their partner’s. For every question, each raises the shoe of whoever it describes. The room reacts when they disagree.

Are the questions clean?

Yes. Everything is written to be read aloud in front of parents, ninongs and ninangs.
