Educate yourself on appropriate social behavior. Know what is considered acceptable in different social situations. For instance, in a family gathering, topics related to family history, shared memories, or upcoming family events are much more suitable. By being aware, you can easily avoid inappropriate topics.
Set some ground rules for conversations, especially in group settings. Let everyone know that certain topics are off - limits. This way, everyone can feel comfortable and the conversation can stay on a positive and appropriate track. Also, if someone starts to bring up an inappropriate topic, gently steer the conversation in a different direction.
Be conscious of the social setting and the people around you. If it's a public or mixed - group setting, avoid sexual topics altogether.
Another way is to steer the conversation towards more positive and inclusive topics such as hobbies, books, or current events. For example, if someone starts to veer towards an inappropriate topic, you can say 'Hey, let's talk about that new movie instead.' This not only avoids the inappropriate topic but also keeps the conversation going in a positive direction.
Educate ourselves on proper social behavior and values. If a topic seems to be leading in an inappropriate direction, change the subject to something positive and respectful, like hobbies or recent good news.
We should be conscious of our language and the values we uphold. Avoid using or engaging with any words or phrases that are sexual or vulgar.
Just be aware of the context and the people you are talking to. If it's a formal or family setting, avoid any topics that are inappropriate. And if someone brings up such a topic, change the subject quickly.
Be aware of the context and the people you are talking to. If you sense that a conversation is heading towards inappropriate territory, change the subject gracefully.

Be conscious of the values we uphold and choose topics that are family - friendly and positive.
Simple. Just be aware of the content you are about to say. If it has any hint of vulgarity or is disrespectful, don't say it.
If someone else brings up an inappropriate topic like this, you can gently change the subject. For example, you can say 'That's a bit too personal or inappropriate. Let's talk about something more positive like the latest book we've read or the great movie we've seen.' By doing this, you can keep the conversation in a proper and positive direction.
Set clear boundaries in conversations. Let others know that you are not comfortable with such inappropriate topics. Also, surround yourself with like - minded people who also avoid such topics.
