Smash or pass?

Smash or pass? is a game in which players evaluate the sexual desirability of an individual and declare whether they would hypothetically want to "smash" them (have sex with them) or "pass" (choose not to). The subject of discussion may be a celebrity, a fictional character, or an individual known personally to the players.

The game has seen spikes of popularity on the Internet, including on Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok. It has also been used as a form of sexual harassment, including through the uploading of photographs of people without their consent.

The name comes from a slang meaning of smash meaning "have casual sex", which is attested from the early 2000s.^[1] The game's terminology is also used metaphorically to evaluate things outside the sexual sphere, like food or festival performances.^[1]
