Bras d'honneur
Bras d'honneur (bras d'honneur; literally "arm of honor") is an obscene gesture used to express contempt.It is roughly equivalent in meaning to phrases like "fuck you" or "up yours", similar to the the finger gesture.To perform the gesture, an arm is bent in an L-shape, with the fist pointing upwards.The other hand grips or slaps the biceps of the bent arm as it is emphatically raised to a vertical position.The bras d'honneur is known by various names in different languages, including the Iberian slap,[a] forearm jerk, Italian salute,[b] or Kozakiewicz's gesture.
