There are ways to present it delicately and avoid offending a young lady's sensibilities. [Or a young dandy's as the case might be.] Such matters are not spoken of openly in every society. I daresay it's most where they aren't. Being polite, using euphemisms, expressing some hesitance and discomfort with the circumstances. These are all ways to deliver the news of our circumstances with more tact and avoid sounding a complete lecher.
