Demo suggested to me that my ex-gf/roommate could use a good Bitch Slap for calling me and my TV show choices immature. Hard to believe eh? Yeah I know! This was during the “battlebots” show… she also defamed “The Simpsons” and “all your other cartoon shows!” She continuously knocks my love of movies such as “The Princess Bride”, “There’s Something About Mary”, “Pulp Fiction”, “Dumb and Dumber” Etc. ad infinitum …if the whole fruckin movie doesn’t take place in a courtroom or isn’t on Lifetime she doesn’t like it. Anywho! I’m in need of providing a Bitch Slap but I’ve never done one before… is this different from a regular backhand or Man Slap? Maybe thats what I’ve been doing wrong! I haven’t been Bitch Slapping my women!! Sheesh… all this time… Techniques people, I need techniques! Demo maybe you could tell me your method of Bitch Slapping psycat?? 😉 ---

Oh dear, Whammo, I’m afraid you misunderstood. Demo suggested this because it is how _I_ keep _him_ in line. He must’ve figured “Hey, it works, I’m a great guy!” Anyhoo, just a good backhand with a bit of an upward swing should do the trick, make sure you shout out “Biiiiooootttccchh!!” when it lands. Your Welcome. 😉 ---

If you want to make it more melodramatic (and it sounds like see likes melodrama), you start by saying, very quietly “baby, there is something on the back of my hand that I need you to look at”, then haul off. The biiiooootch on impact is essential though, like psycat says. ---

Dude, there is no need for the bitch-slap. She has apparently already been bitch-slapped by God, and it has addled her soul, fundamentally skewed her sense of worthwhile pursuits, and left her in some sort of taste-bereft fugue state. We are able to infer this because we know she likes Lifetime. ---

Pssshhhhttt! Puhlease. Anyway, she was right about yelling “Beeyotch!” when you slap, (she _should_, she hears it enough!). Any expert bitch-slapper (like myself) though, _knows_ you always slap the bitch full on in the face with a firm, open hand. Backhands are for hos, forehands for bitches. **You’re** welcome. 😃 (Oh, and Whammo, I’m so _proud_ of you buddy!) ---

I always thought it was the slapping one side of the face with your palm, then slapping the other side with the back of your hand. _Whap-whap_ like. What is THAT called? ---

I swear sometimes this place scares me… Nah you gots to do it back hand style. And the biatch thats the most important part otherwise they wont know its a bitch slap. So here are the steps: 1. Raise your slapping hand above your face back hand facin out. 2. Begin the downward stroke. 3. While your hand is in motion start saying biatch. 4. As your hand touches her face follow through. 5. When you have finished sayin the word biatch immeditaley stop your hand. This should place your hand below and to the left or right depending on where your facing of her chin. 6. And always remember to leave with a cool parting phrase. And that is how to do a bitch slap. ---

A bitch Slap is open handed forehand (Picture JAon Collins slapping someone. the combination of forehand and backhand is for special occasions, or when slapped with a glove, as an invitation to duel. ---

Do unto others as you would have done to you. A bitch slap is “the sound of one hand claping” Don’t hurt that hand, you’ll be needing it. ---

Talkinsquirrel is correct. Remember, the most important thing in an effective bith slap(other than the Biiiiooootttccchh) is the follow through. Without the follow through, you don’t get the full power and control. I am, however, in agreement with Lux Fiat. There is no need to bitch slap her. She can go no lower. ---

The petite woman gets in close to an opponent, grabs him, slaps both sides of his face repeatedly, one way forehand, one way backhand & he says Bitch at each contact. Then she knees him in the balls & he says Fuck, collapses to the ground & (usually) dies. Ok, now I think I either played it too much or just had a slightly unhealthy enjoyment of this particualr move. I think it’s gonna harm my flirting chances! ---

it isn’t the way you slap that make a bitch slap. its the _attitude_. its more of a frame of mind than an acutal action. the bitch slap can be open handed, backhanded, forehanded, underhanded, or whatever. its the message that’s important. you have to make the slappee understand that they are the bitch of the slapper. how this is done is up to you. do whatever feels comfortable and right. you need to be natural in your bitch slap, otherwise it will seem forced, and your domination over the bitch will not be fully imparted. good luck.
