A6310 Section B 高淑真 49482005 Speech Plan No.3

Persuasive speech

Speech title: We should support legal same-sex marriage         

 

Audience Adaptation Plan

1.      Audience attitude: Nowadays, more and more homosexuals are eager to have a legal marriage in Taiwan, maybe many of them are you or your friends.  But right now same-sex marriage is not legal yet in Taiwan.  However, some countries and some cities had admitted same-sex marriage.  So making audience understand the importance, abandoning biases and then supporting legal marriage in Taiwan are my goals.

2.      Reasons: No doubt that legal same-sex marriage is a trade all over the world, especially for developed countries.  However, in Taiwan most people could not accept homosexuals, not to mention legal marriage.  But since it's a problem we will meet in the near future, we should understand more about it and following support same-sex marriage. 

3.      Selecting an organization to meet audience needs: First, I will tell audience that most homosexuals are eager to have legal marriage certificate, but right now in Taiwan it's not legalized.  But in many developed countries and cities have legalized the marriage.  Second, if we do not legalize same-sex marriage, their rights will be damaged.  For example, they can not adopt children.  Third, I will tell audience how many benefits the society will obtain if same-sex marriage is legal.  Finally, I hope we can give up bias and support legal same-sex marriage.
