Exactly. Things may take a completely different meaning depending on the people you're with.
I remember a conversation from a while ago when young me called a gf of mine the "prettiest black girl ever."
When she asked me, "why not just prettiest girl ever?" I was completely dumbfounded because while that's what I had meant, I realized that I no idea what a simple qualifier could do to the meaning of the phrase for someone.
I learned a valuable lesson that day that I won't ever forget. I don't considered myself 'censored' since then, just significantly more tactful in social situations.
