Why do people take the time to develop "aquired tastes". "That was an unpleasant experience", somehow becomes "I will keep doing it until I like it."
My guess is social conditioning, but then how did it become popular enough for that to be a factor?
Do you expect everything that's possibly enjoyable to be enjoyable immediately?
Good point, I do not, but I find it strange that people, myself included, practice at enjoying something when there are plenty of things that are enjoyable from the start. Especially when starting an aquired taste is often quite uncomfortable. I salute the mind that looked at a tobacco plant, smoked it, coughed its lungs out, and then kept doing it till it felt good.
