Fat Black Women Gets Fired Slaps Her Butt

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/flirtatious_smack_on_the_ass.jpg

COLDHANDCOLDHANDCOLDHAND!

Tara: Every time I walk by Dan in the kitchen, I grab his ass. I'm allowed to do that cause he's my husband. He's contractually obligated to let me grab his ass.
Nash: You guys have a strange prenup.

Bob walks by Alice when Alice suddenly hops in place — she felt something grab her butt for a moment and Bob just smirks to himself.

The mid-air light-spank is a customary ritual of flirtation between two (or more) animals of mating probability since fish first crawled from the ocean onto dry land. How the person who got smacked on the ass reacts differs, either with violence or embarrassed indifference. For stronger males who do this, especially with smaller females the butt-smacked female could be shown visibly rubbing her bottom after the slap whether or not they enjoyed the action.

This can be subject to some Values Dissonance when coming from older works, as nowadays it can be a form of sexual harassment.

This trope isn't just relegated to an open-palm. Variations like pinching and finger-brushing are included. Unlike Someone's Touching My Butt, the smack presented in this trope is usually done completely on purpose, though the tropes could be confused by the person who gets the smackin'.

Not to be confused with Shot in the Ass, Ass Pull, and Ass Shove. Compare Kinky Spanking for more than one swat. See also Pain to the Ass.

It turns out this habit is so deeply ingrained into him that even after he's killed and comes back as a zombie, his reanimated corpse still tries to do it, and even when the corpse is out of the picture the semi-sentient spear can be charged up to its full destructive power when she slaps her own ass with it.
