Sensory Aggression.

I go into bars, cafes, shops and my ears are assailed by stupidly loud music, often music in the gay white funk genre.

No one seems to notice, I wonder how they'd react if their other senses were treated the same way? Imagine a stranger pushing chillis into your mouth, shining bright lights into your eyes, pricking your skin with needles or waving a dog turd beneath your nose? Can you imagine anyone doing that and not punching them on the nose? So why do we accept that our hearing will be crapped on every day?

I don't get it.
