fast reply, I have read several people think that face slapping is no different than having their behinds swatted. I just thought I would add my two cents for what it is worth from the perspective of someone that is having it done to them. It is far more intimate to take a blow to your face than to your behind, and I would remind you to think back to the times you were hit in the face to remember what that was like. We are geared to protect our face, so when I suppress the urge to strike back or put my hands up I am submitting something almost primal inside, it is not like having my ass bruised. I like it, actually I love it, but there is a primal thing about it. The first time Daddy did this he tied me up so I would not hit back, because he understood that reflexes will force someone to just respond on that level. Then I would flinch sometimes when I thought a slap was coming, again, reflex action. The last few times it has happened I just let it happen, no reflex to grab his hand, no impulse to block my face, although I will tense up sometimes. It puts my headspace entirely somewhere else instantly. I think what you are reading as far as subs having trepidation about this form of play is normal, the limit is normal. I have had fantasies of being slapped in the face since childhood, so this was something I really wanted to try since I first heard about it. It can be dangerous also, and head and neck injuries (especially head injuries) are nothing to compare to a bruised ass also. It does not take much force to properly face slap someone, and it is not something one should do without reading up on it
