Pat had to give an informative speech for his public speaking class. He wrote as his central

idea, ?Women-you can?t live with them, you can?t live without them, who understands them??
Explain what is wrong with this central idea.

What will be an ideal response?


Most likely this topic does not take the audience into account, as it is derogatory to
women. Secondly, it is written as a question, and a central idea must be written as a
declarative sentence that paraphrases one single idea. This possibly has more than one
idea.
