I don't know if this homework is strictly for Suicide Girls but I thought I might as well give it a go!
The first thing that came to my mind about advice was awkward situations. People seem afraid to say or do things at times because they think it will make an awkward moment. The way I see it, it's only awkward if you let it be. People can read your body language very easily and if you appear to be uncomfortable with what you are saying/doing, those around you will feed off that and feel awkward themselves.
Recently, a friend started dating someone new. She realized after a short time that the guy was still possibly a virgin. She wanted to find out if this was true but didn't want to make an awkward situation between them. I told her it's only awkward if you let it be. Be clear and direct. Tell him you are asking this question because you want to be honest with him about yourself and to make sure everything is on the table to prevent a possibly difficult conversation later.
It's odd advice but I stick by it. :)
