For a good time, dial 1-900-LEZHANG to hang with us, Ellie and Leigh, for only $5 per minute.

From Lauren putting Katie’s dildo into her mouth to mimic the sound of a bj, to both women having practice phone sex while touching each other, to literally having a phone sex threeway and then falling asleep in the same bed, it all gets very gay very quickly. These women are so in love and yet the movie insists on giving Katie
