I'm #autistic. The sound of the train blowing its horn as it passes my house makes me cover my ears in pain. But the throbbing bass of the engine that causes a deep pressure in my chest from the vibration makes me feel happy.
When I was a kid, I used to crank up the bass of my parents' stereo and sit directly against the woofer to feel that pressure. They would always yell at me to turn it down. I've always loved that feeling.

In my much younger/prettier days I used to dance on top of the speaker at the bar. That thump is just as nice coming through the soles of your feet.
A guy once told me that dancing with me was like having sex, standing up. Best compliment I ever got.
