A  video showing a South African gym instructor slapping a female client’s Nyash during a workout session has gone viral, dividing social media opinions.

The clip shows the instructor counting reps while repeatedly tapping the woman’s booty as she performs exercises. While some male Netizens applauded the trainer “for enjoying his job,” others condemned the behavior as inappropriate.

“This is straight-up harassment disguised as training,” commented one Twitter user. “Would this be acceptable if genders were reversed?”

The debate continues as some noted many female clients tolerate such contact to avoid confrontation. “Do women only recognize harassment when convenient?” questioned a concerned netizen.
