   • 2019, Brenda R. Weber, Latter-day Screens: Gender, Sexuality, and Mediated Mormonism, Duke University Press, →ISBN:

     Mormonism is a culture very much predicated on puritanical commitments […] the Amazon series Alpha House […] made much of Mormon soaking, an alternative sex practice engaged in by two LDS characters on the show. Soaking basically allows for penis-vagina penetration but absolutely no friction. Insertion is OK; pumping will send you to hell.

   • 2021, Rachel Allyn, The Pleasure Is All Yours: Reclaim Your Body’s Bliss and Reignite Your Passion for Life, Shambhala Publications, →ISBN, page 226:

     This all-or-nothing attitude implies that penetration equal sex. (Although throngs of folks raised in abstinence-based religions might [take this view]. My favorite is the Mormon concept of "soaking," which means a man sticks his penis in a vagina but doesn't move it around, therefore it somehow doesn't count as sex. Gimme a break.)
