I’ve always considered the statement “I do not like to read” as somewhat dubious. In my opinion, there’s always something interesting to read; perhaps that person simply hasn’t found THE book. However, my friend corrected me, emphasizing that it’s not necessarily the case. Some people genuinely do not enjoy reading books in any form or format.
What’s your take on such cases? Do you believe it’s a matter of finding the right book, or is it indeed a case of liking or disliking reading altogether?

    To be honest, I feel a bit sorry for them because they are missing out on some great experiences and new insights.
    Then again, that’s up to each individual. There are also some entertainment formats that I don’t enjoy myself (like video games).
    But much like I don’t judge books by their covers, I don’t judge people by their taste in books (or lack thereof).

      Anyone who dares admit reading has unique and tangible benefits gets downvoted in this godforsaken sub apparently
