insecure 40-somethings who grew up poor but want to be rich. I’m a nanny who used to work for a vapid, shallow, insecure, selfish woman who idolized Gwyneth. I always gave her a bad time about it.

Zero interest. She strikes as one of the most vapid, superficial, shallow, self-centered, clueless people. She is like a Paris Hilton.

All all the people in the world that I would want to learn from or be entertained by, she is at the bottom of the list. Just like I don't turn to Paris for knowledge on how to make a lasagna!

Why would you be embarrassed based on that episode? She conducts and interview with a couple of workshop leaders about female sexual pleasure??? What did she do that was so embarrassing in that episode, did I miss it?

This is why: https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/goop-teaches-us-we-can-be-pure--if-we-spend-enough-money/2020/01/16/22f8114e-37c1-11ea-bf30-ad313e4ec754_story.html

Misleading “science” too.

She’s a pretentious, egotistical, snake oil saleswoman. That’s why. It’s not that I care SO much, but she’s in the public eye so I merely have an opinion.

Really? Can I ask why? I don't follow GP so I'm not sure why people can't stand her. What has she done that I missed?

I don’t mind her. I find all the venom towards her amusing, why care SO much about a random celebrity? Prob won’t watch the show though, it seems kind of lightweight. We have so much stuff in our queue to get through first.

I am totally.indifferent to GP. I actually think she comes off as pretty likeable on the series. Obviously there is a strong live in LA, work in sort of a not real world (yet multi billion dollar industry) navel gazing ethos to a lot of that stuff. But they seem to also understand that and have some self awarenesses. I had the same concern about crackpot science being pushed. I think Netflix wisely stuck to topics that while maybe totally hippie dippie, they aren't telling people they can. Namaste away cancer or something that seems reckless.

And I can honestly say it’s kinda like Marie Kondo, it’s just one person or group’s talent on life and how to do things. It is sort of fun to hate watch too, and laugh at their self-seriousness.

It is actually a graphic of the vagina - not the vulva.

This article calls it a vulva in one sentence and a vagina in the next. Who knows WTF it is.
