Twisted Passions 9

In the back alleys of Downtown Thornhill lies the seedy establishment Lamoyne Hotel . . . where sexually starved women come to fulfill their lesbian fantasies . . . Even if it's only playing dress-up and getting to know a significant other in a more personal way, girls seem to thrive on feeling special. So when they get together to shed a few cobwebs, it's a special day out . . . away from their hum-drum, day-to-day existence. Now that is special!
