It would be a quirk. Your belief in whether or not there are aliens does not affect your behavior on Earth nor does your belief that they live specifically on Pluto. Even if you mention it it will get you no more then one or two points of Social Stigma: minority group(for having a minority opinion) at worst.

Now believing your construction foreman was an alien and was actually on an espionage mission in preparation for an invasion is a problem.
