Yes -- my rant above wasn't intended to be a value judgement, just more of an observation of the facts. On the other side, it is possible to change what you love. I used to not like tomatoes, but I got tired of taking them off a burger -- so I trained myself to like tomatoes. Also, got tired of throwing out buttermilk (that I'd buy to make biscuits), so I learned to like that too (so I'd drink it before it went to waste). On the tech side, there's been many times that I've preferred one technology, but hated another. But by working towards it, I've become fairly good with things that I previously despised (such as Oracle databases, or Windows API). The trick is to try to find something that you like about those things. Find beauty in even the ugliest of nasties. It is just an approach to life.
