> Do some people's brains "just not like reading?

yes, certainly. pretty common - outside of a disability, we can all learn to read, but it's hard and not enjoyable for many.

> Do some people's brains "just not like music?

yes. (when i say "like" btw. i meant roughly "natural ability", not "enjoy") of course most people love to listen to music, but many people do not have much of a musical ability - and you can't work, learn, or practice your way into it beyond a certain point, either.

some people are terrible at dealing with socialization and others are brilliant. we are NOT all wired the same way. we all have different abilities. what justifies that claim is several billion examples.
