Python is a great language. But there is nothing bad about preferring one language/style over another. There are great programmers in all the camps.

Try the other two scripting languages - Ruby and Perl. I would prefer Ruby. See if you like the way things are done there.

If you find that you are more at home with this language than Python, try analyzing what makes you prefer it over Python.

I would suggest you to start with the basics of the Ruby language, and then try building a simple web app with Sinatra. I find the Ruby style much more comfortable than Python.

But if you don't like any of these languages, its still well and good. If you get can shit done with C#, thats all it counts.
