Take small conscious breaths
Wear a shirt
If it has buttons, be mindful of how many are undone and which
Try not to drink too quickly
If drinking alcohol, this is especially crucial
When sharing a thought or opinion, couch your words in modesty
Others may question your sincerity, which is valid
Avoid asking probing questions
At risk of inciting argument
Or worse, attraction
