Vagina alert: Tell Gwyneth Paltrow to fuck off …

Vagina steaming is dangerous, unnecessary, unproven and … did we mention stupid.

A Canadian woman received second-degree burns to her vagina and had to delay reconstructive surgery until she healed – all because some damn celebrity with a brand called “Goop” is feeding the women of the world a bunch of goop. Gynaecologist, Dr. Vanessa Mackay says, “it’s a myth” that the vagina requires extensive cleaning or treatment.”

There is no proven evidence for the health claims people like Paltrow make and, obviously, second-degree burns (“ouch!) to such a delicate, sensitive area are evidence enough that this is one helluva stupid idea. It’s more like something a snake oil saleswoman would be peddling.
