Each to their own
Informal Depends on context
What it really means
A polite response to a taste you do not share, meaning "everyone can like what they like — but I certainly do not like that". Mild disapproval wrapped in tolerance.
Chinese explanation
面对自己不欣赏的喜好时的礼貌回应,意思是萝卜青菜各有所爱——反正我是不爱。宽容的外表下藏着轻微的不认同。
Example conversation
