a sign of dominance over another. When that person has been shamed or something of the like, "thats my bop" is said by the dominant figure then he/she snaps his/her fingers in the air and taps the subordinate figure on the shoulder. Widely used in Xavier High School, located in Manhattan, and its origins are unknown. Some speculate the mysterious band of hispanics are the originators of this odd phrase.

The phrase “bop” in this sense is New York-based slang that came out of Black and brown queer communities, especially from the ballroom scene, the hood girlies, and NYC’s underground culture.
• The word “bop” originally meant like a lil’ walk, a lil’ strut — something with sauce. Like “that girl got a bop when she walk.”
• Over time, it morphed into meaning your style, pattern, routine, way of being — especially among gay men, fem boys, and trans girls in NYC. It became a quick, flexible word to describe vibe+reputation+routine all in one.
Think Harlem, Bronx, and Brooklyn. Think girls who walk into a room and don’t have to explain themselves. You just know their bop.
“Bop” refers to someone’s vibe, energy, style, or behavioral pattern.
It’s how someone moves, acts, or carries themselves — their aura. It’s like saying “You know how I do.” or “That’s how I move.”
