NEED TO KNOW
A 42-year-old divorced virgin is getting a lesson into the world of BDSM.
In PEOPLE’s exclusive look at the June 23 episode of TLC’s Virgins, Rhasha gets an introduction to bondage during a visit to a kink club.
“When you tie up people like this, do you do the spanking stuff?” Rhasha asks as she is seen with ropes around her body.
“Yeah, we can do that, too,” the instructor replies, which elicits a “wow” from Rhasha.
“We can use our floggers or paddles, any kind of impact play or wax play,” the instructor continues. “I mean, if you got a kink for it, [we can do it].”

Rhasha wants to experience the world of BDSM for herself.
After being shown a flogger, the virgin was immediately game to try it, asking, “Is it going to be hard?”
“No. It won’t be hard,” the instructor responds. “Start off nice and soft here.”
Before he proceeds, the instructor informs her: “We use a check in system here. Red, yellow, green.”

Once he begins to use the flagger on Rhasha, she explains in a confessional, “A man has never touched private areas for me and it’s very exciting. I feel really good.”
“I like getting spanked with the flogger,” Rhasha adds as she is seen getting spanked by the instructor. “It did not hurt at all. It was just like something that I needed all my life.”
Rhasha previously opened up about her bedroom desires on the premiere of Virgins.
On the June 9 premiere of the series — which follows four virgins in their 30s to 40s as they go on a journey of love, intimacy and self discovery in hopes of getting deflowered — Rhasha shared she is “a submissive person” and wants a “dominant” partner who will “manhandle me.”
“I need to get tied up, I need to get spanked. It’s steamy, it’s stank. Sorry mom,” she added with a laugh.

When asked where her fantasies come from, she shared, “I’ve watched a lot of porn and when I explore myself, I imagine those things happening.”
Rhasha referred to herself as “a late bloomer.” She added, “I wasn’t attracted to guys or seen them sexually ‘till I was in my mid 20s. I think it was just being overweight and not having confidence in myself.”
She now hopes to find someone who she feels “safe with, to unleash the w—- in me. That’s what I want to find.”
