Educate yourself on proper social etiquette and communication norms. Know that sex - related stories are considered private and not suitable for public discussion in most cultures. When in doubt, err on the side of caution and choose topics that are universal and non - controversial, such as stories about nature, art, or community events.
First, always be aware of the social context and the people you are talking to. If it's a formal or family - centered setting, stay away from any topic that could lead to sex stories. Second, set your own moral boundaries and respect others' boundaries as well.
Set clear boundaries at the beginning of a conversation. Let others know that you are not interested in discussing inappropriate topics. Also, be respectful when doing this so as not to offend others. If you are in a group setting, you can introduce a new topic that is more suitable for everyone, like sharing travel experiences.
If you sense someone is about to start such a conversation, simply change the topic. For example, start talking about the destination or the in - flight food.
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?'
One way is to be conscious of the topics we bring up. Stick to general, positive and non - sexual topics like hobbies, work, or travel.

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.
