Few things rattle the online community as stories of abuse do, and the reaction to a post about a local woman who allegedly bore the brunt of assaults at the hands of her lover was no different.
An X user, @sweerie_, stirred quite the pot when she shared pictures of a woman appearing happily in love in one set of photos.
In another, she looks visibly bruised, with the finger squarely pointed at her boyfriend after he allegedly assaulted her.
The caption read:
"Umuntu umzame emubi umnike i-relationship bese ayakushaya (you were doing an ugly person a favour by being in a relationship with them, only for them to turn around and beat you). What a weak man."
The images purportedly portray two instances of the couple looking cheery on presumed romantic outings.
Another pair of pictures, based on the different clothing worn, appears to show the woman with a bruised right eye after two separate incidents.
Locals express stong views
Mzansi locals ate up this sizzling swipe at the gent as they took turns taking sharp digs at him.
The post garnered almost 990,000 hits in nearly 16 hours, attracting 7700 likes, 1400 reposts and 1000 comments as outspoken netizens flooded the comments section to air their say.
This opened a can of worms as some netizens concluded in an unfounded way that "ugly' men tended to perpetuate abuse.
Others trivially hit out at the woman for giving him a chance at romance in the first. Briefly News looks at the resounding reactions.

"She never loved him; she was dating [him] for money. Unfortunately, it ended badly."
@iloniMasiku offered:
"Signs were there, and you ignored them. It's not about being ugly, but it's their attitude and behavior regardless. And you knew that he has that, but chose him anyway."
