Impressive.

How long would that 2100 words be at your pace of speech?

Not too sure yet.. I'd take a guess at 8 minutes.

I'll say it's a very fluent and engaging speech. Just wondering, is that your preffered style of persuasion?

It would have been good to have photos of babies in your PowerPoint and at the end a personal view along the lines of...'I know I wouldn't pick the gender of my child'

But then again, I like emotional appeal...even if it's a little

Agreed, emotional appeal is fantastic! One of the stronger techniques IMO.

Interesting... is the Dr. scenario a personal choice or something other kids at your school are doing? I haven't seen anyone else take that approach, it should be refreshing if noone else in the class is doing it. Fluent, conversational and persuasive... I like it.
