Leave it to the religious folk to come up with the most clever workarounds to celibacy. You’ve probably heard of devout believers who will enthusiastically engage in oral or anal sex instead of standard penetrative intercourse because it’s technically not boinking according to their faith (or so they say).
Now, the God-fearing pseudo-virgins have a new method of getting off while not going to hell. It’s called “soaking” and we have the Mormons of TikTok to thank for introducing us to it.
Let’s get right down to it. What is soaking? It’s penetration without thrusting. Even more bizarre is that the act may also involve a friend bouncing on the bed (aka “jump-humping”) to provide the pleasurable momentum for sex. But orgasms aren’t allowed, so how you know when you’re finished is unbeknownst to us.
“It is definitely a real thing in the community, among teens and single Mormon college students,” 26-year-old former Mormon Briana O’Neal told The New York Post. “It’s kind of like a hush-hush thing. Everyone knows it goes on, but you wouldn’t come out and say, ‘Oh, yeah I soaked with my girlfriend’ or whatever.”
The hashtag #soaking will net you over 2.5 million hits on TikTok, leading you to videos like these:

There’s just one problem – actually, make that several, like 1) God isn’t stupid and knows what you’re doing, 2) unintended pregnancy and/or STIs are still possible with soaking, and 3) it’s sex, stupid.
We won’t be partaking in soaking anytime soon (old-fashioned fucking it is!) but we sure do enjoy the conversation and creativity surrounding it. Good luck getting right with God, kids!
