Do you know why you like a particular genre of film, tv show etcetera?

I’ll explain. To each his own. Every language and culture has its cliche and idiom regarding ones particluar likes, dislikes and tastes. You like sci-fi and hate action, or you like comedy and dislike drama.

But why? Have you ever thought about it? Are there studies about this? Have you cracked the code as why you prefer one over the other?

And while we’re on the subject, can you think of a particular scent or flavour you like or dislike especially, and put your finger on as to why that is?
