How can I get all the likes of a Facebook user according to a category in Android?

Hi I am stuck on a very small problem. I am making an Android app and I have integrated it with FB. I would like to get a list of all pages of a particular category that a Facebook user has liked ?

This is the code I have written so far : 

        new GraphRequest(
            AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
            user_id+"/likes/",
            null,
            HttpMethod.GET,
            new GraphRequest.Callback() {

                @Override
                public void onCompleted(GraphResponse graphResponse) {
                    Log.d("check",graphResponse.toString());
                }
            }).executeAsync();

This is returning a JSON object of all liked pages. Each FB page has a field called category. For instance, category is clothing. Now how can I only get clothing pages that a user has liked ? Thanks

I used following code to get pages liked by user only in music category,

Request: 

 GraphRequest request = GraphRequest.newGraphPathRequest(
  accessToken,
  "/me/music",
  new GraphRequest.Callback() {
    @Override
    public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
      // Insert your code here
    }
});

Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("fields", "link");
request.setParameters(parameters);
request.executeAsync();

You can´t filter with the Graph API, at least not right now. You will have to do that on your own after getting all entries.
