If we’re talking the ‘walking down the street at night and you see a woman’ scenario, making noise and keeping a respectful distance helps. Develop a whistling habit, have some jangly keys out, whatever. This especially helps if you’re behind us.
Beyond that, it really depends on the situation, but as long as you don’t leer or loom that’s a good start.
“Develop a whistling habit” is not a way to attract less attention I guarantee you. If you ever get good at it people will be set at ease, but being bad at it yields no comfort to those around you.
