Put it in and then don't do anything = soaking.

I'm not sure it's really a thing...

It'd still count as sex, so whoever does it is an idiot.

I think Raza had a point. Heading to The Garage to start a thread!

That's called Tantric sex, and last time I checked, it was still a kind of sex.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

But people do it?

It sounds alright, actually. As long as you have a pretty high level of intimacy with your partner and it's followed by actual sex, that is. :lol:

I should rephrase; do Mormons do it?

I've heard it's relatively prevalent within the Utah Mormon community. I heard about it for the first time on a college football message board from a bunch of BYU, Utah, and Utah State kids and people who either grew up Mormon or grew up in Utah.

I met a non-Mormon from Salt Lake City a few weeks ago at a party. We were joking around and people were asking him what's it like to live in SLC. I asked him if he knew what soaking was and he burst out laughing and said "Yeah, I know what it is. How the hell do you know what it is?"

So in other words, yes, my internet research and 1-person drunken survey proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's real. And it's an epidemic.

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

No idea. I've never heard of anyone actually doing it.

Then again, I didn't grow up in Utah. Mormons do all sorts of weird things here.

yeah, so I regrettably googled it.

I just don't see how it doesn't count as sex.

It does. That's why I said only an idiot would do it. If you're gonna break the rules, might as well just go all the way.

Hate to be so up front, but what are the rules for Mormons?   You can't bang, I'm guessing BJs aren't fair game either?  Can you at least play with some titties?

...This thread took a really weird turn.

No sex (normal, oral, anal).

Not sure what playing with boobs would be considered.

Anyway, about the Fiat... Have you driven it yet?

Yes, runs pretty good (though not after it's been on a tow dolly for 400 miles). Once the alternator is on and charging, I'll be pretty much good to go. Bunch of little stuff.

Haven't driven it except to load it on the dolly and around to the alley to stick it in the garage.

so far all i've gotten out of this discussion is that there is yet another perfectly normal word that now has sexual connotations. Great!

Congrats on the car! Love the 124 Spiders, and the early ones especially. The 2 liter is the better engine, especially after the emissions are removed and it's allowed to breathe, though the fuel injection is MUCH nicer to live with than the carbs (it's bosch after all and easy to work on/reliable).

Look for the book by Guy Croft on these Fiat and Lancia engines.



Wiring is actually quite simple, just make sure the connections are kept clean and use a good dielectic grease in the connectors to keep them from corroding (poor russian alloys are a bad mix in these cars, but keeping the connectors clean means they can be daily driveable reliable)

Again, here's mine:

Sad because parts of Utah are beautiful. I'd almost consider retiring there- except there are definitely too many Mormons..

BTW even heavy petting and french kissing are discouraged before marriage. They are "gateway sex" actions.....
