Reneé Rapp Talks "Hating The First Year Of Filming 'The Sex Lives Of College Girls'" Because Of Her Past Struggles With Coming Out As Bisexual,When explaining her coming out story, Reneé Rapp said, "I was just, like, laughed at every time I tried to come out. So then I never really talked about it. And I had always just said, 'I just was one of those people who never felt like they really had to come out.'"
Reneé Rapp Talks “Hating The First Year Of Filming ‘The Sex Lives Of College Girls'” Because Of Her Past Struggles With Coming Out As Bisexual
It’s no secret that Reneé Rapp has been dominating the pop culture scene lately — after her successful second season on the smash hit The Sex Lives of College Girls and the release of her new EP Everything to Everyone, she’s on a roll.

“I had never heard anything surrounding [being gay] in a positive light because the one queer person that I knew in my life is a family member of mine who I really looked up to, who got absolutely shitted on by everybody in our family.”

After coming to that realization, Reneé called her friend. “[My friend] was like, ‘Okay, so do you think you don’t like boys at all?’ And I was like, ‘No, no, no. I still do. But I’m a lesbian.'”
It was Reneé’s friend who told her that she might be bisexual, not a lesbian. “She said, ‘I think you’re bisexual.’ And I was like, ‘You’re kidding?!’ That was so intriguing to me.”

“To be honest, I feel like my genuine coming out to my family — close and extended — has been doing College Girls. Because now that part of me is on display in a very palatable way.”
HBO Max“It’s kinda fucked up. … Now it’s really cool for everybody [to be gay] and everybody’s like, ‘Oh my god, amazing!’ I did not have that same support as a kid.”
And this whole experience not only diminished her self-worth, but also made her hate filming the first season of Sex Lives of College Girls. She said, “The first year of doing College Girls was terrible, it sucked so bad, because at the time, I was in a heteronormative relationship and I hated going to work because I was like, ‘I don’t think I’m good enough to be here. I don’t think I can be here. I don’t think I can be doing this’ … and then I would come home and I would psyche myself out, literally.”
HBO MaxShe even remembered the pressure made her question her entire identity and shared, “I called one of my friends and I was like, ‘I am straight, like, I think I’m just straight; I can’t do this.’ … I was in a panic constantly, and I wasn’t [straight] but I was so freaked out by the idea of my sexuality not being finite or people laughing at me, or me laughing at myself, that I hated the first year of filming.”
