There have been so many posts about soaking and BYU lately that I thought you might have questions. Burner account to not dox myself
have you soaked or jumphumped for a friend
No, I was too scared of girls to even think about it. Mormons are forbidden from dating until they’re 16 and even then it’s frowned upon, because you should save your dating energy until you’re 21 when you can date to get married.
Also I don’t know anyone who has soaked or jump humped. tbh I think it’s an urban legend but friends of friends have claimed to have done it, so :shrug-outta-hecks:
We’re u taught about sex at all? I’ve heard of mormon couples who marry and don’t even know how to fuck or where babies come from because their parents and schools kept them so sheltered. But I figure that’s a rare case even for mormontes.
Oh, and did people get worked up about getting called Mormons instead of latter day saints? I knew some Mormons in high school that insisted u call them LDSs
My parents gave me “the talk”, but it was pretty brief and they really only told me about male puberty shit. I was pretty clueless about sex growing up because Mormons are huge prudes. They’re like super protestants in that way, and lots of young people get married too fast because it’s the only way they get to be sexual.
The Mormon vs LDS thing is funny. When I was growing up the church made a campaign to get people to call them Mormons, but now they’re back to asking people to call them LDS. It’s stupid and confusing.
Why do y’all live in the desert? Like, what do you do for a living in a fucking desert? The Salt lake is probably salty so where do you get your freshwater?

Los Angeles: :side-eye-1:
I guess California used to have snowmelt rivers, right? that’s why all the wineries and stuff. But Utah doesn’t have such snowy mountain ranges, right?
Oh wait apparently they do have mountains and rivers, nevermind.
Los Angeles is built on what was literally a desert, check out the LA river
Early Mormons were chased out of the US for being polygamists/pedophiles. They kept fleeing west until they reached the Salt Lake Valley (which was then part of Mexico), which is relatively habitable (even though it’s in the desert) because snowmelt from the nearby mountains provides enough water via irrigation for drinking and agriculture.
Yes. This is a controversial question even for ex Mormons though. In my mind it is for three main reasons:
- Reverence for their leaders as god (Joseph Smith and their current prophets are treated as if they were as holy as Jesus)
- Demands for huge amounts of your money (10% of your gross income, otherwise your access to religious blessings are revoked)
- Difficulty leaving the church (it took me months to officially leave and I was ostracized from my community for it)
Gay Mormons break my heart. If they come out they’re usually expelled from home if they live with their family. If they try to stay Mormon then they’re systemically excluded from participating in the organization. The dinosaurs who run the church are super bigoted about it.
Thanks for the link, I’ve never seen this clip before. The information is accurate, except for the castration thing. Although I think they worded it as salaciously as possible to paint Mormons in the worst light. (nobody talks about “endless celestial sex” in church)
Mormons all claim to be Christian, that’s the official doctrine. Like you said though, it breaks from mainstream Christianity dogma, so other Christians are always calling them out about it.
Did y’all ever figure out the whole “No Hot Drinks” thing or was that still a topic of some debate around the church?
