Its like being slapped in the face, and so in the days of pirates it was when you challenged someone to a fight or a duel.

Calling someone out is like challenging them to prove themselves.

It means to expose somebody. If we were to be somewhere and I told everybody that you had a crush on Tom, I would be calling you out.

Challenging someone in something that will reveal that they are not all as great as they talk themselves up to be?
