Speaking Competition Theme

There's this competition and I might be representing my school

I case anyone doesn't know what it's about: It's a competition where we go on stage and give a speech (well, not really formal kind) on things... Life, teens or whatever except sensitive issues...

I would want suggestions on what to speak about... It must be something relevant to teenage life, and close to heart... (something like inner beauty or self-confidence)

So... anyone wanna lend me some hands?

Please and thanks~

Does queerness count as a "sensitive issue"? Because that would be what I would talk about.

Try pro-life/choice issues.

Whatever side it's a sensitive issue.

Wow, yet another topic about someone participating in some kind of speech competition.
When I was still at school we once visited one of those.
There's one topic I remember someone talked about that had quite an impact on the audience: femal genital mutilation. I don't know if that's still a big issue or not but it sure is a difficult but important topic.

Well, I like all that special ideas but I don't think it's relevant to a typical teenage life...

How about the desire to be popular and how everyone is always being mean and pushing everyone down to get to the top?
