8	->'''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.\
9	'''Nash:''' You guys have a strange prenup.
10	-->-- ''WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou Live - The Four Horsemen of the Axepocalypse - 9/3/18''

12	[[AliceAndBob 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.
13
14	The mid-air light-spank is a customary ritual of [[FlirtingAndCourtship 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.
15
16	This can be subject to some ValuesDissonance when coming from older works, as nowadays it can be a form of sexual harassment. The only time this is acceptable in RealLife, of course, is the case when a woman admits she [[KinkySpanking enjoys]] an ass smack.
17
18	This trope isn't just relegated to an open-palm. Variations like pinching and finger-brushing are included. Unlike SomeonesTouchingMyButt, the smack presented in this trope is usually done completely on purpose, although the tropes could be confused by the person who gets the smackin'.
19
20	Not to be confused with ShotInTheAss, AssPull, and AssShove. Compare KinkySpanking for more than one swat. See also PainToTheAss.

26	* A televised commercial for Irish Spring body wash has a feisty redhead deliver an ass-smack to an athletic lad in a pub. Viewable on Website/YouTube here at the 0:22 mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7McgAX-3XUE
27	* An ad for Lynx body wash (marketed as Axe in the US) had a young man who had apparently just spent the night with his girlfriend do this when he saw her the morning after as she was bending over in the kitchen. And then the actual girlfriend walks in a moment later...
28	-->"Ah, I see you've met my mum!"

31	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
32	* One episode of ''Literature/DirtyPair'' had Yuri in disguise as a stewardess in a train after tying one up and stealing her uniform, she encounters the leader of the gang she and Kei met earlier and she's fearful he will recognize her, as all she's done to disguise her face is put on a pair of glasses, he walks up to her and to her surprise he just tells her "nice ass!" and spanks her.
33	* ''Manga/HarukanaReceive'':
34	** Before Haruka's rematch with Ayase, Ayase slaps her ass and compliments her on having a nice posterior, to Haruka's embarrassment.
35	** Claire Thomas does the same to her sister Emily, to the latter's annoyance.
36	** On the final episode Emily gets some payback by slapping her sister's ass, to her surprise and embarrassment.
37	* ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'': Miroku is a serial butt groper, which is met mostly with giggles (with the notable exceptions of Kagome and Sango).
38	[[/folder]]

40	[[folder:Comic Books]]
41	* ''ComicBook/{{Empowered}}'' has the titular heroine repeatedly subjected to this by the superhero [[TestosteronePoisoning Phallik]] (wielder of the [[FreudWasRight Mighty Phallospear]],) with him justifying it as a gesture of "comradely affection". She gives him the benefit of the doubt at first, but as soon as it becomes obvious that he doesn't do this to anyone except her, and is just a sexist pervert taking advantage of her reputation as a helpless bondage-prone DamselInDistress, she calls him out for it. It turns out this habit is so deeply ingrained into him that [[spoiler: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]].
42	* ''ComicBook/TheFlash'': On a number of occasions, Linda Park would do this to her husband, Wally West, whenever she was in the mood.
43	* ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} is prone to receiving this from female villains and love interests.
44	* ComicBook/BlackCanary has both done this and received this, with ComicBook/GreenArrow (of the love interest variety), and the ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'' (of the sport-team variety, but the team practically ''runs'' on LesYay so there's a hint of flirting behind it).
45	* One of the most (if not ''the'' most) infamous example of this in comics happens in the 120th issue of ''ComicBook/{{Daredevil}}''. He and the ComicBook/BlackWidow have been partners for multiple issues, and she expresses a massive dissatisfaction in going from being the most feared spy in the world and an [[ComicBook/TheAvengers Avenger]] to his sidekick. Matt tries to comfort her with, as he puts it, some "horseplay" by first telling her to dress hot for the party they're going to. And then, when she (seemingly jokingly) calls him a chauvinist, he gives her a playful smack on the butt and says "I said move it darling". The panel is typically taken out of context online, making Matt look like a mindless misogynist, but whether the context makes it better or worse is up for debate/interpretation.
46	** 2 issues later, Matt and Natasha have a more serious conversation where his hands (maybe accidentally, but we don't know) approach her derriere, but she then slaps them away saying "You're getting awfully liberal with your hands, Daredevil. Once, it's horseplay. Twice, it's developing into a decisively bad habit".
47	* In ''ComicBook/ArkhamAsylumASeriousHouseOnSeriousEarth'', the Joker cups Batman's ass.
48	* Issue 19 of ''ComicBook/TheSupermanAdventures'' has Multi-Face slap Mercy Graves on her behind while impersonating Lex Luthor.
49	* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman'' receives one of these from Orion in the page image, and is decidedly not pleased. As it turns out, he was planting a tracker in a way that wouldn't attract suspicion. The method was still a bit questionable, however.
50	[[/folder]]

52	[[folder:Comic Strips]]
53	* The [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/garfield/images/f/ff/Usa1988-11-09.gif/revision/latest?cb=20200624053530 November 9, 1988]] strip of ''ComicStrip/USAcres'' had Roy slap Lanolin on her rear while saying "How's it going, fuzz face?" Lanolin responds by slapping Roy's face off.

60	* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5483280/6/Harry-Potter-and-the-Champion-s-Champion Harry Potter and the Champion's Champion]]'', Ron very stupidly does this to Fleur just as she's about to be summoned for the first task. Only the timing of that call saves Ron's life from a Veela angry enough to transform. The dragon isn't so fortunate.
61	* ''Fanfic/LadybugInAHalfShell'': Johnny Smith (also known as "Johnny the Perv") is a student at April and Casey's school infamous for doing this.

Th-That's not what I meant."
70	** ''Naru-Hina Chronicles Mini-sodes'': Naruko from the Yuri-verse does this to her Hinata in one Mini-sode.
71	* When [[ButtMonkey Dusty Joy]] first appears in ''Fanfic/ThePowerOfTheEquinox'', her bad day has already been made worse by the fact that she got smacked in her flank by a stallion who crept up behind her as she was leaning over during her cleaning duties. She retaliated by kicking his face, which her boss Peach Seed reprimanded her for before having the guards escort the stallion away.
72	* Toph does this to Princess Yue in Chapter 6 of ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/8198735/chapters/18782399 Sokkarem Week 2016]]''. She doesn't stop there, going further by spending a few minutes fondling it.

80	* ''WesternAnimation/BoysNightOut'': When a stripper serves Linberg and his stepfather some drinks, the stepfather pays for them by licking some dollar bills and slapping them onto her butt. The woman lets out an amused laugh before walking away with the money sticking to her butt cheek.
81	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'': Fergus pats Elinor's rear in the first scene just as Elinor is berating him on giving Merida her first bow, causing her to jump briefly in surprise.

87	[[/folder]]

89	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
90	* The first ''Film/AustinPowers'' film has a DeletedScene where Austin does this to a flight attentant, who gets furious with him and has to be dragged out of the cabin before she attacks Austin. Likely cut due to the rest of the film portraying him as more of a ChivalrousPervert.

Mrs Brandon blushes and takes it as a morale-booster.

152	* ''Series/GetSmart'': Maxwell Smart is talking to a Control agent disguised as a cabaret dancer, who tells Max to pinch her behind so it won't look suspicious as to why he's standing close to her. [[ButtMonkey She then slaps Max]], because reacting any other way would also be suspicious.

167	* ''Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway'' has covered "Times when the athletic butt-slap is inappropriate." A couple highlights:

214	* Creator/IsaacAsimov, who had an unfortunate habit of groping any female in sight, did this to fellow science fiction writer Judith Merril. He was surprised when she grabbed his crotch in response.
215	* While it's important to note that this is unacceptable between unfamiliar people, a loving spank is very much fair play between lovers (ass gropes also). It's essentially become an erotic acknowledgement of love, which is the reason you ''don't'' do this with foreigners who can't even recognize you.
216	* It's not uncommon for guys to do this to each other in various male-dominated occupations like sports and the armed forces, displaying something between GayBravado and an implicit close trust between them. Or an attempt to establish dominance, depending on the people involved. In the US, this is known as a "Good Game." With increasing numbers of women serving in the armed forces, the acceptability of this practice has begun to come under scrutiny, for reasons mentioned above already.
217	* UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump is quite infamous for doing this to women.
