Hello everyone. Matty (now Matheo) here, more commonly known on this blog as Eoulapa and Aufisü. On this day last month, I initiated this blog and embarked on this insightful journey. From hair restrictions to free speech, from phone regulations to liberalism, this blog has touched upon various fields of interest to me. I've also shared my Free Speech and Respect with my globally conscious English teacher, and I plan to share more in the future both with her and with you, the wider audience.
A contentious subject I have been grappling with is long hair restrictions in school, incited by the discipline master. I have submitted multiple pieces to the school newsletter and expect them to be published in compliance with the school's open discourse motto, proclaimed by the principal.
I have reiterated that discipline is important, but so is individuality. My discourse initiative was, of course, to assert my discontents with certain rules. Now, I certainly anticipate some sort of fierce and persistent responses, for example apprehending me and sending me to detention or simply rejecting my submissions, but I definitely do not appreciate such responses. Nonetheless, I believe I have to draft a response template in case people approach me all of a sudden - I'm lacking in verbal debating skills, after all:
Notification of Objection
Dear Mr/Ms ____________________,
I, ____________________, from class _____, have allegedly breached the stipulation that ______________________________________________________. I inform you that I object respectfully to the concerned rule, because (choose at least one option):
☐ it is based on the invalid premise that ____________________________________.
☐ there is the logical fallacy that _________________________________________.
☐ it impedes individuality exorbitantly, namely by ___________________________.
☐ it goes against the principle of _________________________________________.
☐ it poses harm, namely by _____________________________________________.
☐ __________________________________________________________________.
To illustrate your argument from my point-of-view, I have visualised the perceived logic flow. Please correct me if there are errors:
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I apologise for any inconvenience caused. Regardless, I anticipate future contemplation and action. Specifically, I expect ______________________________.
For future communication, feel free to approach me, but I expect that my option is respected by contacting me:
☐ in person _____________________________________________(time and place).
☐ via _______________________________________________________________.
Thank you and goodbye.
Regards,
