NEW: Unearthed audio shows Dr. Oz saying incest is "not a big problem" as long as "you're more than a first cousin away." He added his daughters don't want to have sex with him because "my daughters hate my smell... Girls don't like their fathers' smell."

Dr. Oz on Incest: More Than First Cousin? 'Not a Big Problem.'

    Mr. Oz, are you saying you want to have sex with your daughters?

    Of course I don’t. Don’t be ridiculous. Think of the smell. YOU HAVENT THOUGHT OF THE SMELL, YOU BITCH

    That clears everything up. Thank you for coming onto the show.

    The first part was bad enough but then he implied he's already propositioned his daughters :cringe:

    A content warning might be warranted for this weapons-grade creepiness

    "My 'Incest Is No Big Deal' shirt has a lot of people asking questions already answered by my shirt..."


    My skin just crawled entirely off my body.

    I mean, the two Big Problems with incest are 1) power relations and 2) genetic disorders, so if two consenting adults come together who are just far enough apart for their kids not to be at risk then what's the problem?

    The daughter shit is creepy though, why would you even think about saying that.

      Alright maybe I'm the liberal fascist on this here but if two family who have grown up together even if consenting adults without power imbalance hookup that shits weird. And I'd goa aa far as ban that shit.

      The only way I probably wouldn't find it weird is if say 3rd (whatever would be 3 degrees of separation like last Great grandparents being only linked blood family) cousins who had never met and accidentally matchup together at a bar and find out years later theyre somewhat related

      Yeah cousin marriage only became a taboo during the eugenics movement when the eugenicists vastly oversold the risk of genetic illnesses. It was completely normal and carried no stigma before that. It's still common in a lot of cultures.

      I don't know, man. The whole thing just has a lot of :frothingfash: incel energy. Trying to explain away the very well-known downsides to a "pure" bloodline. Doggedly justifying a very insular set of social relations. Being horny for immediate relatives, generally speaking.

      Yeah, I get that sometimes horny kids do horny things and that's no reason to panic. But to have some creepy dude waving around a medical degree and pounding the table in defense of even mild incest is such a bad look.

      because they’re control freaks obsessed dominating others.

      CW: SA

      it’s a disgustingly common occurrence for surgeons to SA their patients while they’re unconscious and under anesthesia.

      I know two other women personally who came to while being groped. Only one of them won their malpractice lawsuits; they settled out of court and the surgeon is still practicing,

    trying to think of an appropriate response to this but i cannot, under any circumstances, stop vomiting

    Trying to not doxx myself here, but my partners family has ties to the same small religious town as Dr Oz and this is a shockingly common sentiment. One of those old school PA towns that formed around a small religious sect freshly imported from europe. So the roots run deep and are sometimes shockingly entertwined. Think the Gyllenhaals are also from the area and now distant cousins of mine through marriage

      Does Oz actually have ties to somewhere in Pennsylvania (besides UPenn)? He was born in Turkey or Tyurkye or whatever they changed their name to and raised in Delaware like our boy :biden-alert:

        Can’t elaborate without sharing too many details, but yes the Oz family certainly does have ties to the community. Actually this made me go investigate and lmao apparently the connection is on his wife’s side so this dude just embraces the incest where he found it

    We really need a Habsburg chin emoji for when :lmayo: go off on discussing inbreeding and incest as "not a big deal".

      I imagine the average campaign is drudge work or often boring. But Fetterman camp (including the Big Man) have something different. They must be laughing nearly every day at Oz's antics. What did he do now!

        Oz's social media team seems to genuinely hate him, it's all insanely out of touch and just makes oz look like the dumbass outsider he is.

          At the very least, any competent social media team would tell him to do another take of the crudite video.
