| Message | Local governments are competent enough to decide what is and what isn't obscene. |

| Message | We can certainly agree to this - sexual intercourse is something that should take place in the privacy of someone's home and is absolutely inappropriate in public areas. We don't feel that this issue is debatable enough to be left up to local governments - who could possibly argue against sexual intercourse being illegal in public? The issue is fairly simple and one-sided, therefore we see no need not to make this decision universal throughout the nation. |

| Message | It is quite likely that it is already universal throughout Aldegar. After all, can you imagine someone allowing people to have sex on their streets without being booted out of government? In fact, it's quite likely that the policy is already strict enough that all sexual relations are already illegal. |

| Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
