| Message | This could hurt the economy,you realize that right? Also,if a woman consents to being a prostitute or a porn star,let her. What if she just enjoys sex and wants to make money doing it? I understand the objectification argument but most people know the boundaries between reality and fantasy. |

| Message | Why would we want these asocial degenerates being seen as the norm? |
| Date | 02:27:18, January 26, 2017 CET | From | Liberal Democratic Party | To | Debating the Prostitution Law |
| Message | Criminalizing prostitution will not prevent prostitution. Without prostitution being recognized as a legitimate profession, these prostitutes will turn to pimps rather than taxed and regulated brothel businesses. Criminalizing prostitution will increase violence against prostitutes as they will be unable to report these crimes to the police because they would be breaking the law at the time. |

| Message | We agree with the LIberal Democratic Party |
| Date | 11:15:07, January 26, 2017 CET | From | Hosian Left Party | To | Debating the Prostitution Law |
| Message | Do you not think legalized prostitution provides a legal guise for sex trafficking? What we should focus on is ensuring that women do not have to turn to prostitute via economic reform. We shall propose another bill that seeks to rectify this |
| Date | 12:48:54, January 26, 2017 CET | From | New Labour, New Mordusia | To | Debating the Prostitution Law |
| Message | We agree with the LDP. Our primary concern should be the safety of the vulnerable people working in this industry & believe that on balance a ban, however well intentioned, would lead to greater expolitation & make them less safe. We look forward to considering your economic proposals however. |
