Soaking (sexual practice)

Epic card · No. 12079

Soaking is a sexual practice of inserting the penis into the vagina but not subsequently thrusting or ejaculating (without the help of a third person). It is said to be used by some Mormons, also known as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Soaking is reportedly used as a loophole to the LDS Church's strict rules against premarital sex. LDS Church leaders do not support this view, instead teaching that "it is wrong to touch the private [...] parts of another person's body" outside of marriage. There are no published scholarly surveys or research around the prevalence of the practice. Some Latter-day Saints have said that soaking is only an urban legend, while others have given firsthand accounts of having practiced it themselves.
