They think we are strange for being different, we think them strange for being all the same.. 
Are we weird or are they narrow minded?

Well........honestly your wife's "friend" sounds like a jerk....
Though I can kinda relate....people think my boyfriend's hobbie is odd so I don't bring it up too much at random...but I find comfort in places like arachnoboards and other folks that seem to understand the obsession. Most my friends may find it strange but.... they know it's just a matter of preference and don't diss me for it

Weird? Yep. I have had that label for as long as I can remember and I have only had Ts for a few weeks. My friends all tease me about being weird but I have never had anyone stop being friends with me just because some of my hobbies and interests are a bit freaky. If I had a list of weirdest pets I ever owned Ts wouldn't even make the top two spot. I figure anything you can walk into a pet store and buy is pretty mainstream.
As for the narrow minded people out there-those that refuse to learn or accept anything new- Where would we be if that thinking was 'normal'? Cowering in a cave afraid of fire, thats where.
You get tired of explaining to new friends about your Ts being in the house? Try explaining to a house guest why there is a badger raiding your fridge for strawberries and bacon.
