Tea and Strumpets
A wealthy aristocrat and her daughter prepare for an afternoon of tea and strumpets.
Partaking in tea and strumpets was a popular pastime in Great Britain during the Victorian era.[1] Though the practice never gained the popularity of the less illicit tea and crumpets due to the fact that prostitution, associating with someone of lower social class than yourself, and sexual intercourse of any sort were frowned upon in Queen Victoria’s England, the enjoyment of tea and strumpets by the aristocracy of the period was nonetheless an important and extremely stereotypical facet of Victorian British culture.
Origins
Though tea was first introduced to Britain in the 1670s by the Portuguese Catherine of Braganza, queen consort of Charles II, the popularity of the drink would not take off until the 19th century, when the British Empire gained control of India, and, by extension, much of the world’s black tea. It was also during latter period that British culture discovered its penchant for producing cheap Cockney prostitutes, downtrodden women that were victims of the socio-economic impacts of industrialization, the class-based prejudice of Victorian England’s stratified society, and the poor cocksmanship of many an uptight[2] male aristocrat. It would prove to be only a matter of time before those that could afford fine imported porcelain tea sets and weren’t fazed by the risk of contracting syphilis sought to combine the two pursuits.

Eating out a Girl of the street would qualify as food without calories. Not my cup of Tea
