Default Is electronic/dance music an acquired taste?

I was wondering this, because I notice that most people (on this forum, and in real life =P) do not like electronic dance music. On one end of the spectrum, you have rock and metal fans that dismiss it as "gay" music for "homos", and on the other end of the spectrum you have hip hop and pop fans that see it as repetative noise, paticulary the pop rap fans that I have to deal with whenever I go to my one friend's frat house parties.

Knowing this, I'm starting to see this whole genre as something that you have to acquire a taste for, at least in America anyway. I know it's very popular and hip in Europe and Canada, but seeing as how I live in America, it doesn't really effect me. Discuss.
