It wasn't that long ago when Gwyneth Paltrow raved about the benefits of vaginal steaming, a non-scientifically proven process of sitting over a hot pot of water filled with herbs for up to 45 minutes to cleanse your uterus and balance female hormone levels, as the actress had put it.
Most recently, Paltrow's lifestyle website Goop, which promoted vaginal steaming, is at it again with another advice for women: putting a jade egg yes, a solid object about the size of a golf ball in your vagina, and keeping it there all day or while you're sleeping.
For $66 a piece, the jade eggs, once the strictly guarded secret of Chinese queens and concubines to please their emperors, would help boost your orgasm and increase vaginal muscle tone, hormonal balance, and feminine energy in general, reads the beginning of an article titled Better Sex: Jade Eggs for Your Yoni.

Basically the same as Ben Wa balls. Been around for centuries.

It’s a good play, isn’t it? The person who wrote it has the brains, obviously.
The fact that so many women would choose to believe a celebrity over someone who went to med school to become a gynecologist is the nub of the problem.

(They're not jade, but it's the best that I can do.)
I think its a safe bet that if some new age health tip comes from Gwyneth Paltrow, you shouldn’t rely on it.
And I though liberals spent all day gazing at their navels.
Great googah moogah! What STD prompted this?
Walmart has this kit available for portable steam cleaning of ones "Goop", though I don't see the herbal infuser attachment.
one size fits all
I couldn’t have said it better.
Gwyneth also does not use deodorant, thinks it’s carcinogenic. According to those who have to be around her on movie sets, she REALLY stinks, like a skunk.
“The B.O. is strong with this one.”
“If you only knew the POWER of the B. O.”
We have bacon in our Centex caves.
I'm reminded of the Mae West quote (I think): "Kinky is using a feather, perverted is using the whole damn chicken."
I’m only not laughing because my daughter is a nurse in the E.R., and it’s only a matter of time till someone shows up there who actually tried to use that.
[eyeroll] On second thought, if it renders doofy lib women infertile, maybe it's not so bad?
Chinese woman have done it for 2000 plus years. And i read the article. Among the reasons the militant California gynecologist listed was that women should do things just because men might it. Man hater is probably against high heels too.
What was it the newspaper writer H.L. Mencken said? “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American People!”
Sometimes I think Paltrow is nothing else but a World Class Troll. She knows she is ridiculous and annoying, but like many clever, idle people, she wants to see how far she can take the bluster. Gwyneth wants to see how big a fool she can make of people who admire her for style, with very little substance. Gwyneth is one of those people who seems to thrive off the hateful energy of others. Lena Dunham is also in that position. In my opinion,both are Jive Talkers, very needy ,vicious and envious.
Both privately laugh at their devoted fans, and minions, holding them in great contempt. Andy Warhol was one of the original World Class Trolls.
I used one of those to steam clean the cosmoline out of an SKS stock.
“Hey doc! Those supposastories, whatever, you give me ... for all they good they did I might as well as stuffed `em up my ....”
Either that, or she misheard what the Red Rocks were telling her on where to shove her philosophical lifestyle.
Granite may be too splintery and prone to chipping away.
Rose Quartz may be better.
