face slapping
Palm meets cheek
Face slapping is striking someone's face with an open hand.
It can be an act of anger, insult, or provocation—historically a challenge to a duel.
In BDSM contexts, face slapping is a consensual act of dominance and humiliation.
The phrase also describes a sharp rebuke or wake-up call: The election results were a face slapping for the party.
