Why do people hold alternative view points to the main bulk of society?
Why do some people choose to study the supposed lesser-academic, soft, "fake" subjects?
To answer this question I would like to make that point that intelligence is not innate, it changes over the lifespan of an individual and when studying intelligence it is important to note that there is not any one type of intelligence but rather there are many different types of intelligence such as street smarts and academic ability based intelligence, but there are many other types out side of this.
In links to intelligence, some people are better at academic subjects and have very good written communication skills but the opposite is also true, some people are better at subjects where their is less written work and more practical based work. These are the so called anomaly in society those that share beliefs of mutual respect for the soft subjects and believe that there is no superior subject or show the complete opposite belief that practical is better than academic as it is applicable in labour jobs and also jobs outside of offices.
People who differ from the norms by preferring the soft subjects are often less academically inclined and have low academic ability but not all are like this, some are both academically inclined and prefer the soft subjects. The fact is that people who take subjects such as those from the expressive arts are more likely than not to be worse at academic subjects.
