@anildash @TheSpork @CatDad So ask if they want help, and listen to their answer. It's really That Easy

@TeflonTrout @TheSpork @CatDad@mas.to have you genuinely never encountered other cultures with different norms?

@anildash @TheSpork @CatDad Frequently. So I ask. Even when I've violated a norm, since my intent was to learn what the norms are in the first place, nine times out of ten it led to a better relationship.

Just. Ask.

Edit: You know what? This is stupidly easy, watch. "I've been through x before, if you'd like I'd love to share."

Done. Help is available, everyone is aware, nobody feels put upon or offput.
