Not sure if this is in the right section but, I have questions for you ladies. Ok, I have to give a persuasive speech to my high school english class and I chose the topic GLBT Rights. Now, I obviously want my speech to be effective, and I dont want to poorly represent the community. So, what points/arguments/issues are important to you guys? Should I address any issues more in depth than others?

Heres what I plan on including as of now:

Backround of GLBT oppression, denouncing genetic defect and immorality (present in many other species) ideas

Bringing to light how large the community is, that GLBT people are not a remote part of society so denying such a large group of people equal rights is made even more egregious.

and then of course the legal issues marriage, adoption, equality in work-place. those are the biggies right?

Thanks for your help guys!
