Parallel Park

When a guy tries to "park" his dick in a girls mouth horizontally, cheek to cheek. It's a tight space and there isn't always a lot of time to back up, pull out and then maneuver until you're all the way in so if that space doesn't work, find one that will.

"I know it's a tight space, but I always have to back up and pull in a few times when I parallel park. It's too hard to get it all in on the first try."
