<p><strong><a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/rachel_bilson" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Rachel Bilson</a></strong>&#8216;s to do list includes serving the holiday tea.</p>
<p>The <em>O.C.</em> star shared how she really feels about <strong><a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/whoopi_goldberg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Whoopi Goldberg</a></strong> criticizing her comments on men&#8217;s body counts, noting that the situation &#8220;almost felt like shaming in a weird way.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I normally don&#8217;t respond when I get called out for things,&#8221; Bilson said on <strong>Bill Maher</strong>&#8216;s <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/club-random-with-bill-maher/id1613459129" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Club Random</em></a> podcast. &#8220;But then again it&#8217;s like, ‘Alright, well, if you&#8217;re talking about my podcast and I said something, let me respond. Because it&#8217;s just going to bring more people to maybe hear the conversation in the first place.'&#8221;</p>
<p>After Maher joked that the actress &#8220;should be sending them a fruit basket&#8221; for the extra publicity, Bilson quipped, &#8220;I should be sending Whoopi a f&#8211;king Christmas present is what I should be doing!&#8221;</p>
<p>Back in October, Bilson said that she <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1387255/rachel-bilson-responds-after-whoopi-goldberg-criticizes-her-hot-take-on-mens-sex-lives" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">feels &#8220;judgmental&#8221; toward men</a> who have only been with a few sexual partners, noting on her <em>Broad Ideas</em> podcast, &#8220;If it&#8217;s really low, at this day and age, you&#8217;d be like, &#8216;It&#8217;s a little weird.'&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m sorry, I think it&#8217;s very odd that you&#8217;re concerned that he&#8217;s had sexual partners—any sexual partners. Why is it your business?&#8221; she said on <em>The View</em> in October. &#8220;Listen, men, traditionally, were taught to have many sexual partners.&#8221;</p>

<p>Goldberg explained that men have been encouraged to sleep around, but women were previously held to stricter standards.</p>
<p>&#8220;Now that has been shifting, and young women have been bitching about, you know, &#8216;Why are you telling me what I should be [doing?],'&#8221; the 68-year-old continued. &#8220;Now, it&#8217;s happening, and you&#8217;re mad. I don&#8217;t understand.&#8221;</p>
<p>At the time, Bilson said she was &#8220;concerned&#8221; by the TV star&#8217;s reaction to her hot take.</p>
<p>&#8220;We make it a very safe, open place to discuss anything, and we were just talking,&#8221; she told <a href="https://ew.com/tv/rachel-bilson-whoopi-goldberg-the-view-criticizing-sex-life/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Entertainment Weekly</em></a> Oct. 5. &#8220;I have the power to edit our podcast, and I chose to keep the conversation as a whole in, because a lot of the time in life, you say something, and maybe you have a minute and you reflect on it.&#8221;</p>

<p>The reveal came after <em>The O.C.</em> star&#8217;s guest <strong>Whitney Cummings</strong> shared that her sex drive had increased since going off birth control. &#8220;I have not had an orgasm from sex until I went off birth control,&#8221; Cummings said. &#8220;Never had it in my life until I turned 40, but I could do it with my hands.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bilson, 41, related to Cummings&#8217; experience, admitting that she didn&#8217;t experience an orgasm until she was 38. &#8220;Isn&#8217;t that crazy?&#8221;</p>
<p>Rachel⁠ also noted that she had previously gotten it done on her own, but &#8220;not with, like, dick inside.&#8221;</p>

<p>Bilson continued to dish out bedroom confessions when she revealed her go-to sex position in a May 2023 episode of the <em>Women On Top</em> podcast.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve learned that if you want to have an orgasm during sex, you have to be on top,&#8221; Bilson shared. &#8220;Missionary is my favorite. I want to be f&#8211;king manhandled.&#8221;</p>
<p>The <em>Jumper</em> actress went on to reveal the position she tries to avoid is doggy style, with Bilson explaining that it depends on &#8220;the actual dick&#8221; because &#8220;it can go so deep and hurt.&#8221;</p>

<p>Shortly after sharing her thoughts on sexual positions, Bilson revealed during the May 15 episode of <em>Broad Ideas</em> that she suffered professional fallout from her candid conversation.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is the first time it&#8217;s ever happened to me in my professional life that I lost a job this week because of things that were said,&#8221; she explained, &#8220;I basically got a job, that I already had, pulled from me because I was speaking openly about sex.&#8221;</p>
<p>Noting she was &#8220;floored&#8221; by the move, Bilson admitted losing the opportunity &#8220;sucks,&#8221; but she didn&#8217;t regret anything she shared.</p>
<p>&#8220;I haven&#8217;t said anything inappropriate,&#8221; she stressed. &#8220;Choice of language, if I could go back, now knowing I lost a job, maybe I would say it differently. But I still wouldn&#8217;t not say it.&#8221;</p>

<p>During her intimate chat with<strong> Mandy Moore</strong> in a June 2022 episode of <em>Broad Ideas</em>, Bilson—who shares daughter <strong>Briar Rose Christensen</strong>, 8, with ex <strong>Hayden Christensen</strong>—opened up about &#8220;a really hard breakup&#8221; she endured during the pandemic without naming names.</p>
<p>&#8220;I could not leave my house, you know what I mean?&#8221; she shared. &#8220;I had nothing else to do but sit in it, and deal with it and feel it. It was probably the hardest thing I&#8217;ve ever done⁠, harder than childbirth.&#8221;</p>
<p>While Bilson added that the split &#8220;hurt like a motherf&#8211;ker,&#8221; she explained that facing the breakup helped her move on. &#8220;You can come out of it and be like, &#8216;Okay, I did that and I&#8217;m ready for the next thing.'&#8221;</p>

<p>While<em> The O.C.</em> fans were watching the love triangle play out between Summer, Seth (<strong>Adam Brody</strong>) and Anna (<strong>Samaire Armstrong</strong>) during the Fox teen hit&#8217;s first season, Bilson revealed that there was romantic drama going down behind the scenes among the trio.</p>
<p>On the <em>Welcome to The O.C., Bitches!</em> rewatch podcast, <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1286957/rachel-bilson-recalls-tension-with-the-o-c-co-star-samaire-armstrong-over-adam-brody" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she admitted she was &#8220;a little jealous&#8221;</a> when Brody and Armstrong kissed in an early episode.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was like the real-life triangle playing out as I&#8217;m watching it,&#8221; Bilson, who dated Brody for several years before they broke up in 2007, recalled. &#8220;I feel like it definitely played out a little bit in real life for a minute, even though not really really. But I remember the tension with Samaire and I, like, a little bit.&#8221;</p>

<div class="article-detail__text-only" data-testid="segment-text-only">
<p>Given that her mother <strong>Janice</strong> is a sex therapist, Bilson has always had a comfort level with discussions others may find uncomfortable.</p>
<p>&#8220;Growing up in a household that was so sex-positive and free and candid&#8230;definitely made me more obviously open talking about things,&#8221; she told Yahoo! Life&#8217;s<em> The Unwind</em> series in July. &#8220;These are the things women go through, and there&#8217;s nothing connected to it that feels like, &#8216;Oh, I shouldn&#8217;t be talking about this.&#8221;</p>
<p>And it&#8217;s why Bilson launched the <em>Broad Ideas</em> podcast with her best friend of 25 years, <strong>Olivia Allen</strong>, in 2022. On the show, she welcomes a variety of guests to discuss a range of broad topics, including sex, infidelity, and mental health, free of filters or fake niceties.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m a little more unhinged, but it&#8217;s nice to be able to feel free with it,&#8221; <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1334343/why-rachel-bilson-is-so-done-with-being-a-people-pleaser" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bilson told E! News at the time</a>. &#8220;Authentic is the better word and I think people are craving it more than ever.&#8221;</p>
<p>Explaining she wanted to provide a &#8220;safe space&#8221; for women to share their experiences, Bilson said she wanted the podcast to feel similar to a weekly hangout with &#8220;true friends&#8221; that don&#8217;t judge one another.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s just having these soul sisters that you can go through everything with that have been there through everything and will never judge you,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It just felt like my best friends and I are always having these conversations, why not make that the norm?&#8221;</p>
