I can understand the crushing handshake as some kind of game between men.

Doing it to a woman seems more like a form of assault.

No. Just like ass-slapping, it's assault if it's unwanted, regardless of gender.

Like everything, it depends on the context. Ass-slapping athletes are different than Ass-slapping construction workers.

No. Consent is the only thing that matters. Gender and profession is completely irrelevant. It should be obvious that you don't touch people without their consent.
