Through sequential manipulation and turn manipulation, the caller uses stand-alone nage, either as a pronoun referring to a sex organ or sex-related problem or as a filler, to delay or to build up to the explicit mentioning of the names of sex organs or sex-related problems. In addition, nage also makes a compounded occurrence as “nage+noun.” Both in the stand-alone form and the compounded form, nage as a delicate issue managing practice in some sense helps the caller to distance him- or herself from sex-related topics, which are normatively avoided in conversations, and simultaneously helps the caller to portray him- or herself as a victim rather than an agent of the sex-related problems. }}
