The source used for the assertion that "intimacy choreographer" is not the same as "intimacy coordinator" contains no such statement (and apparently does not use "coordinator" at all). It seem that other reliable text on the subject use terms "i. coordinator", "i. director", "i. choreographer", "sex choreographer" interchangeably. Викидим (talk) 05:05, 29 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

"already existed in the realm of live theater"

So, no actual History for this. Great.

Because no, just claiming (no source, obviously) that "it already [implicitly: always] existed" doesn't make it so. Oh, and the article needs to be renamed "Intimacy Coordinator (Film and TV)", or I'd expect more on the general concept. At some time live theater must have come up with this (and I'd wager it's a pretty new concept there too, at least the 90s, probably post-2000). jae (talk) 04:53, 15 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Specific text to be added:

...take the Gwyneth Paltrow situation, where she’s like, “We asked that intimacy coordinators step back and said, ‘We’re good.’” In my mind, that’s the relationship working out great. The intimacy coordinator did their job. [...] they created a space where the actors felt comfortable doing what they were doing. — Yehuda Duenyas
