Plus many menfolk tend to end up not having such PG rated conversations when there's a bunch of other men around, and quite a few end up having those secretive funny mags they're so fond of for some reason. That's what I imagine men like to do, unless I don't know men that well.

(Or something similar to this.) Also, Shredder's the main reason he's out of jail, so that's mostly why he chooses to stay with Shredder, to repay him for busting him out.

I'm also wondering if he just doesn't stay with Shredder now because he has nowhere to go. As a fish mutant, he can't really go anywhere (he needs Baxter to keep his breather gear maintained) and as a human Shredder would ship his butt back to jail or get him deported. It's hard to tell though since this season he hasn't really been developed much as others have said, and mostly degenerated down now to comic relief.
