Not weird. Most ppl wear some sort of headphones particularly for the noise cancellation features.

Nope! I usually wear my wired headphones or AirPods cuz I dial in for better audio

Same. I would also wear headphones cause if my dog hears other voices on the speakers (in another room but small apartment) she will bark like crazy

I use AirPods for all of my calls. Sound quality is great and I think they look more discreet than a big headset. Nothing weird about it at all.
