Educate people about appropriate communication. Make them understand that sharing such stories is not acceptable behavior. Schools, workplaces and communities can play important roles in this education. For instance, schools can have lessons on proper social behavior which includes not sharing inappropriate stories. Also, individuals can choose to leave or block those who constantly try to spread such stories in their social circles.
First, we need to promote good moral values. Educate people about what is appropriate and inappropriate in communication. Second, social media platforms and communities should have strict rules to filter out such offensive content.
First, set clear rules in the social environment that prohibit the sharing of inappropriate content. For example, in a community group, clearly state that any form of pornographic or sexually suggestive stories are not allowed.
Be self - aware and control your language. Always remind yourself of what is appropriate in public.
One way is to set clear rules. For example, the management of the lockerroom can post signs stating that inappropriate conversations, including sex stories, are not allowed. This makes it clear what the expected behavior is.
Simple. Just change the topic when it starts to head in that direction. For example, start talking about sports, movies or books.
One way is to set clear boundaries in conversations. If someone starts to head in that direction, firmly but politely change the topic. For example, start talking about a recent sports event or a new recipe you've tried.
No. Sharing such stories is inappropriate as it involves private and often vulgar topics that are not suitable for public discussion.
Just be conscious of the topic. If you feel a story is veering towards something inappropriate, change the subject.
Firstly, focus on genres that are known for positive and healthy content such as classic literature, self - help or educational books. Secondly, when exploring new authors or books, read the summary carefully. If it seems to have any inappropriate hints, avoid it. You can also ask librarians or bookstore staff for advice as they are often well - informed about suitable reading materials.
If someone starts to bring up such inappropriate stories, change the topic to something more positive and family - friendly like hobbies or recent travel experiences. For example, you can say 'Let's not talk about that. I had an amazing time hiking last week, what about you?'
