Should one go out and entertain or should one stay in and read a news article? These choices can be made off one’s desire, but are not always easily perforable one over another. Mill believes that when distinguishing between two pleasures you should ask someone who has lived or been through both pleasures to determine which one receives higher pleasure. This solution is too broad that it is unlikely to fit every scenario making it baseless towards Mills argument. Pleasures are different between each person and categorizing them is not realistic. To an artist drawling may achieve the highest intellectual pleasure, but if the artist is put in a place to choose between drawling and dancing and were to ask a dancer which is more beneficial, they will say dancing. Proving that different people benefit from different activities. Mill is trying to make his solution universal, but there are so many different possibilities that it cannot be used as a universal
