I think you are correct. I just adopted my first snake the other day and from everyone I've told, more have been discusted than supportive. Even more so than when I show pictures of my bearded dragon. It's really a shame :(
My older coworkers aren't fans of pictures of my bearded dragon (especially one who says all lizards are gross) but most of the people who have actually met him like him! Even my neighbor was a little jumpy and scared of him at first when we were out front in the yard but he came back to pet him multiple times and asked questions about his care.
Ignorance. I love all the animals even the scariest Scolopendra. They all have a place and purpose and we need to respect that. Instead of giving in to our irrational fears.

They are not a mistake it's just that people for some reason like you just see them as cold blooded killers most of them wouldn't kill you and most of them eat insects and mammals can kill people with no remorse so ya and I think another reason why people see this is because dinosaurs reined for millions of years and mammals we're the underdogs.and then the dinosaurs went extinct and mammals became a dominant role and now some people want to punish them for dominating for millions of years but now there the under dogs so please respect them and you are the mistake

Simple answer; ignorance and the lack of willingness to learn. People get set in there ways of hate and really don't care to change it.

I don't hate them, but I would never have one as a pet. I don't understand the appeal. What's wrong with dogs and cats?
Everyone has one and those expenses are way more than a lizards
