Please Stop Writing Incest Plots: The Rise of Step-Sibling Tropes in Media

In this mini podcast episode, I dive into the disturbing trend of incest and step-sibling tropes in media—from The White Lotus to Life with Derek—and why it’s making me sick. I break down how shows and movies are normalizing these inappropriate dynamics, the psychology behind the obsession, and why we need to stop romanticizing this stuff. Plus, I share my thoughts on Saxon (yes, that Saxon) and why his character is a walking red flag. If you’re as tired of this trend as I am, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about it.
