Gwyneth Paltrow’s notorious Goop Lab is again, however this time, it’s all about intercourse. The brand new sequence, Intercourse, Love & goop follows 5 actual {couples} as they take a journey to find out about eroticism and intercourse. The trailer, which dropped at present, options massaging, tying, spanking, bondage and toys, in addition to smiling and crying. In different phrases, it’s quite a bit.

“It’s one factor to be emotionally susceptible on digital camera, however to be sexually susceptible — we’ve by no means actually seen this earlier than,” Paltrow says within the trailer.

That is (as if we may neglect) the identical girl who as soon as recommended placing jade eggs in your vagina to “enhance chi, orgasms, vaginal muscle tone, hormonal stability, and female vitality typically” (which was subsequently extensively debunked). She additionally recommended vaginal steaming, and one girl who tried it bought second-degree burns. In different phrases, not somebody with an awesome observe document in terms of intercourse recommendation. That mentioned, the unique Goop Lab did have a reasonably good episode that talked about vaginas and offered sensible perception and recommendation, so possibly we should always give this sequence the good thing about the doubt?

The {couples} within the trailer actually do appear to have some breakthrough moments, and a part of me is rooting for them as they be taught to like themselves and one another, which appears to be the intention of the present. However then there are moments that appear to be rather less well-intentioned, and it makes me curious how Paltrow goes to deal with the stickier, touchier subjects, like kink and bondage. Regardless, my curiosity is piqued. I shall be tuning in when the Netflix sequence premieres October 21.
