Thanks for the insight - jump humping and soaking sound like the kind of bullshit my parents would believe because it was featured in some local news story.

Most "teen trends", especially those related to sex, are just wildly blown out of proportion "stories" based on a couple of people trying something weird, someone else hearing about it, and now suddenly all the teens are doing it.

It reminds me of being in high school when my mom asked me if my girlfriend's jelly bracelets were a sex thing because she heard about girls owing sex acts to guys who can break one.

I never heard of the jelly bracelet thing, but now I'm thinking about how that sort of thing can be way stronger than it looks.

I have some TPU filament that's stretchy enough to feel flimsy, but after I realized I somehow couldn't snap it, it became kind of a strength challenge. The strongest guy I know couldn't snap it, and he bent a 36" pipe wrench once. But then again, there weren't sex acts on the line.

It's a repression thing, they can't face having sexual fantasies of their own so their mind tricks them into thinking they're super interested in every news story about wild sex things - suddenly they're up all night imagining wild and perverted things that are probably happening, but not because they like thinking about those things they reassure themselves, they're a good moral person trying to protect civic morality...

Read interviews with satanic panic people, endless vivid details right out of an extreme romance novel. Tiktok human trafficking panic is another example, those videos with obviously made up warnings about sex rings and kidnapping methods - it's all structured just like it's porn equivalents.
