I don't want to be a shoe, I want to be a purse

Recently, I watch a tv series named  titled Friends. In the espisode 01 season01, thing is that the episode is about  the bride Rachal calling her daddy to explain why she run away from the her wedding. Here are Rachal's words:

"when I sat in the gifts room, it seemed that every box said to me " you are a shoe, you are a shoe" . Why I am to be a shoe? What about something else? Maybe, I want to be a purse.

What I want to ask is that on this occasion, is there any special meaning by defining calling someone as a shoe or a purse ? In Chinese "broken shoe" (破鞋) has a special meaning inspecial occasion. For example, in this sentence "she is a broken shoe" means " she lost virginity", a derogatory term. "A walking wallet" usually means someone pays his girlfriend's or wife's shopping bills.

Please help me correct my text and answer my question.

notes: you should use father instead of daddy. daddy would be a term used inside a family and not all families would use it. It would sound odd asking someone "how's your daddy?" if you were not related.

I don't think that Western society  uses the same allusion of a broken shoe to mean a loss of virginity. The series Friends is very shallow American humour and part of the humour is making out that the charachters are somewhat weird or stupid in their day to day life. I think that this would be an example of weirdness, the charachter has a sudden strange thought enter her head.

I don't want to be a shoe.  I want to be a purse.

<em>Ian, she doesn't mean anything special by her use of the specific words "purse" and "shoe."  She is just trying to explain her feeling in a strange and creative way.  She is being quirky because she doesn't know how else to say it.</em>

<em>She's using shopping terms because that's what was in front of her and that's her world.  If she were a mechanic, she would have said "Everywhere, everything is telling me I am a tire.  I'm a tire.  But maybe I don't have to be a tire.  Maybe I could be a muffler."</em>  <em>She just means that she feels like everything is telling her what she is, and she feels like she could still be something different.</em>
