Over the last few days, a picture of a woman who is presumably called Melissa posing next to a tattoo of her face and name tatted largely on her boyfriend's back has been making its rounds all over Mzansi internet.

"Ayi some gents though," Twitter user @SmokezBeastly captioned the picture which he uploaded on to his personal page recently.

Naturally, locals had a lot to say about the extreme way the young man was willing to go to show his lady just how much he loves and adores her. Many were completely against it, while others thought it was actually a little sweet.
