| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have gained a religious base that is against this bill, but we stay with our principles. It's the people who need to decide about their own lives. If you want to walk naked on the streets, that's okay, it's your own choice. However if you choose not to, it's your own choice as well, a perhaps better choice. That doesn't make it less right to walk over the streets naked. We don't want public disorder, but we do think it's better when people make their own choices and government doesn't make it for you. Rep. Jerome Hunter, Deputy Leader LP |

| Message | Mr speaker, We will not support this, nudity is quite frankly disgusting, especially if your walking down the road, late for a meeting or something and you see a naked man coming towards you. Nudity is not socially acceptable and has been for thousands of years. Thank you Micheal Rights, representative Khodor. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Nudity is one of the most natural things humans can engage in. If the GRP find it disgusting then clearly society has been misinformed about nudity and perceptions must change. Furthermoe, he state should not force people to clothe themselves. We are in the fourty-first century, not the fifteenth. Rutanians are predominantly progressive people and we have some of the most forward-thinking laws in the world - we should be proud of this fact. - Cathleen Forrest (Representative for Delvar), Green Party Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We;re also appalled by nudity, but we do not think it's the government's place to dictate what we can and cannot wear. Rep. Jerome Hunter, Deputy Leader LP |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
