3rd Trimester Abortions. You can't get much controversial than that. I debated that in college and did well.

Are you afraid to talk about things you perceive as effeminate? Maybe you could debate the other side to the issue?
You asked for a controversial topic.:nerd:

Ok, "gun rights or gun control" is a good one. Lots of arguments and lots of good folks buying ammo now scared today.
Also, "no TV during the week". It works for me and those women in the class will debate you on how cruel it is. lol
One more, "Lack of proof for Global Warming"... but that might get you a failing grade... :doh:
Hold on, try "Nuclear Power as a clean and environmentally friendly energy solution". That is balanced, controversial and will spark good talk if you research it right.
