| Message | The 'mothers' who adopt will not be breast feeding, therefore your point is mute. Even if a heterosexual couple adopted the child would still have a different immune system, as you put it. Why deny two loving people of the same sex who desire a child and can raise it well, from adopting? There is no fundamental reason why not except for prejudice and fear. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
