Yes! It's because consciousness behaves differently when it knows it's being observed. :)
But you should still do it anyway. We make it a point to just go on the fly and just allow what wants to be expressed be expressed. Fight through it and just have fun. The more people hear your topics being discussed, the more normal it will feel to have these conversations, and that's where we need to get. People don't talk about "taboo" subjects because they get ridiculed by the ignorant. But if you can normalize this subject for an ignorant person, even if you don't meet them in real life, then you'll spark the spiritual electricity of them changing their condition to one of curiosity and wonder at all the new information that's been cleverly hidden from them. Freetuit!
