what is a good persuasive topic to talk about?????for 5-7 minutes?

Question

and their topics,points if yall have any???????thanks

Answer 1

The benefits of wearing sunscreen:

1. Avoid skin cancer
2. Avoid that old leathery shoe look
3. What can happen if you don't wear sunscreen
4. How to properly wear sunscreen (re-apply several times per day, what SPF to wear)

If you get a little newsy with it (kinda pretend to be a reporter, but DON'T overdo it), no one will even notice you totally copped out and picked the safest subject, and you should easily ace this one.

Answer 2

You can choose a non-controversial topic, which would probably go over well with everyone. Try something like "Support _____", such as "Support the Red Cross". Just explain why it's a good cause as opposed to others, and that way you can have a strong ending by proposing the class do something like sign up for a blood drive. It's always a good idea to ask the audience to take some sort of action at the end.

Answer 3

Consider your audience so that the material is of interest to them and pertains to them. Even though you are doing this for a class, you want your audience's attention.
Talk about what you know and/or are interested in.
I gave my persuasive speech about the importance of flossing. Coincidentally, I had just visited the dentist and gotten the schpeal as well as had recently met a 32 year old who lost all of his teeth due to poor dental care. I got the kids attention by referencing losing teeth at 32. . . granted it was somewhat gross, but I got an A.
I am not saying you should write about flossing, I am just trying to show that you can take something simple and make a decent speech out of it. Don't over think this.
Good luck.

Answer 4

I would try to avoid the controversial topics. People who disagree with your stance often don't favor your speech for that reason. Go with something that everyone agrees with but they rarely do (like the wear sunscreen comment). That way it is more of a motivational speech than a persuasive speech, but people won't notice and will like it better because they feel like it might change how they act.

Some ideas,
Eat more vegetables (give some good recipes and have pictures)
Exercise more (tell of some trails in the area)
Spend time with family (tell personal experiences of happy times with your family.)

Answer 5

Pick something that you actually care about and that there is some controversary around--there's no point "persuading" people to do something they already do! Also, I'd personally suggest staying away from topics that are somewhat overdone (death penalty, abortion) unless you are really passionate about the subject and feel you can approach it in a new way. What age group will be hearing the speech? That makes a difference too...consider using a problem/solution approach...think of a "problem" and actions you would like to persuade the audience to take to solve the problem.
