If you think abstinence is just for young people, think again! The new TLC original series Virgins follows four adults - Deanne, Alex, Rhasha, and Sonali - in their 30s and 40s who have never experienced sexual intercourse before and are ready to get out of their comfort zones. The new series premiered on Monday, June 9, with new episodes released every Monday.

"After years of missed connections and dating horror stories, these late bloomers are done playing it safe. They're stepping outside their comfort zones and taking big swings to finally go all the way, emotionally and physically. From navigating awkward first dates to exploring a bondage class and working with an intimacy partner, they're putting it all on the line in hopes of finally sealing the deal".

Produced by Crazy Legs Productions for TLC, this revealing series discusses the taboos and misconceptions surrounding sex as four participants from extremely diverse backgrounds share their stories through often funny, candid, and honest revelations. From a divorced virgin to someone who's only made it to second base, and another who has never experienced an orgasm, meet the four contestants below.

DEANNE (Los Angeles, CA) 

Deanne is a beautiful, ambitious 35-year-old virgin with high standards and quick to dismiss any man she meets. Despite her charm and success, her finickiness holds her back. With encouragement from friends, she starts dating but always finds a reason to walk away. Will she finally let her guard down? 

ALEX (Reading, PA) 

Alex is 34, lives in his parents' attic and drives his mom's minivan- a textbook failure to launch. Now, his sisters are stepping in, determined to push him toward independence and maybe even romance. From tantra speed dating to testing pickup lines at a bar, will Alex finally take that next step toward adulthood and sex? 

RHASHA (Jacksonville, FL) 

After a divorce, a major transformation that included weight loss surgery and shedding 80 pounds, Rhasha enters the dating scene at 42 years old with newfound confidence, despite having been celibate her entire life, including the period where she was married. Ready to explore her sexuality, she decides to dive headfirst into role play and BDSM. Will she finally lose her virginity and embrace her liberated self? 

SONALI (Hollywood, CA) 

Sonali, a 37-year-old South Asian woman, dreams of a romantic first time filled with jazz, wine, and rose petals, but reality hasn't quite matched the fantasy. With a conservative upbringing and fears of intimacy, she's barely dated, let alone had sex. Now, she begins a personal journey toward sexual awakening. Can she overcome her anxieties and finally embrace pleasure on her own terms? 

 Per the official press release, Virgins isn't just about sex, it's about embracing vulnerability and pushing past fears where the real climax is confidence, connection, and self-love.
