Okay so I normally lurk, but I think it's possible to add interesting context. What Oz said is legit in a general scientific sense. Studies have found women might have evolved an ability to avoid incest by smell. Studies have shown daughters truly are disgusted by the smell of direct male relatives.
Scientists like to find significance in non-significant results when it fits their biases.
I see this all the time and it really sucks to have to repeatedly push back against it because you know those people were taught the importance of proving results are significant and are just ignoring the problem. It's usually from people in positions of power with financial conflicts of interest.
It's even worse when you say results from an animal study are insignificant, because they'll run another study that's bigger or somehow modified. Either way, more animals die.

Not saying Oz isn't a creep or a weirdo. But I'd lean towards that quote being taken out of context without knowing more.
Those studies have way to few participants to have any real value.
