Does it have to be embarrassing, though? Like, when I think about fandom, I think about people who are really really into a fictional work in a way that most people aren't. However, I think everyone has at least ONE special interest topic that they geek out over and know almost everything about and would weird people out if they started geeking out about it in public. But the thing is -- is it really bad for them to reveal such a thing?

Maybe it's just my life experiences / where I find myself now, but I think hearing someone talk about that thing is great! As long as they're aware other people won't be as enthusiastic, but I mean, you've basically found an expert on a particular topic and you can find out something new or get the expert's view without having to put in ANY time to research said thing. I think that's cool. Rather than thinking about it like "Oh god, this person is saying something embarrassing," I like to think about it as an opportunity to learn something new very easily.
