   So, it's very contradictory to tell a thing ("taste is subjective") and to   
   claim that this thing is objective. It's impossible.   
      
   And you opinion is also subjective and it's not very exact as opinion. So   
   the taste is maybe not subjective.   
      
   In fact, you make a confusion (in philosophy) with the pleasant and the   
   Beautiful (in aesthetic field). (Sorry, I don't know the words in english   
   or if it's not the exact words). The taste in aesthetic is not the pleasant   
   and it's not like the simple taste as a personn would like a cake. Like a   
   cake or not (or a man or a woman), it's subjective and private. Like a   
   movie, it's not only subjective.   
      
   The Beautiful is other thing that the pleasant. It will be difficult of to   
   put on the same plan Mrs Bovary of Flaubert and a poor sentimental novel   
   which tells the same history. It is however what you do.
