| Message | Personally I have more respect for sexual workers than for royalties, so I wouldn't mind if my kids made that change. Probably they'll change their mind again before it becomes relevant. And in any case, what some kids say is not reason to have the police hunting honest people. |

| Message | Most of them are. And, it is not the proffession I'll recommend them, but I'd be a lot happier if they'd be having ideas about that than about the royal slobs all small children around me seems infatuated with. |

| Message | Like I've said before I have a hard time knowing what is best when it comes to the legality of prostitution. Ideologically I feel that people have the right to do with their own bodies what they will. Yet I also really think that no good comes of prostitution and that, like gambling, can breed crime and disease. Thinking about all that, I came to the conclusion that prostitution will always be around. Its the world's oldest profession right? So we might as well keep it where it can be regulated and monitored. The legalisation of prostitution may actually cut down on its negatives rather than encourage them. |

| Message | I didn't make that up, that's what its been called for quite sometime, at least here in America. And really nice of you to resort to name calling. Maybe that can answer your question as to why you weren't included in my cabinet. |
