Message | We support everything except Article 3. We would like to stay the way it is (so we don't get enormous differences between our provinces, also to protect these professional women ;) But RDF would like to protect family life and oppose growing family industry. So we uneasily accept the legality of prostitution. |

Message | RDF, you are aware that Article #3 legalizes SADISTIC pornography, right? In other words, if I brutally RAPE a woman, I can (LEGALLY) display it on a video in Wal-Market?! [ ; ( ] Rather, this law simply says that **All** CONSENSUAL pornography is legalized. Slight change. Thanks again. |

Message | We agree with article 1 and 2 but we think that article 3 does need to be change but not to what is proposed. We think article 3that porn depicting consenting adults is legal for everybody...not just adults but overall we support the bill. |

Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
