How would demonstrating that Character B is sometimes seen as weird by other people serve the narrative?

I know I'm being pedantic. I'm thinking about why that is, and I think it's because, well...I hang out with weirdos (some of whom have weird families. I've got two friends who help their parents with Ren Faire-associated businesses). I am kind of a weirdo, and I just reign it in when I need to. When I think about writing the sort of character that might get labeled a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, it doesn't occur to me to show them being seen as weird by a certain set, because it's neither interesting to me nor integral to the story (generally speaking).

The more I think about it, the more I think that my world and my experiences are just so contrary to what people are drawing upon when they criticize this type that I can't completely grasp it. This is despite my being able to grasp the concept of a character being two-dimensional or too perfect. I may just have a blindspot when it comes to a certain set of traits. :(
