Sri Lankan Girl Slaps Street Tout 6 Times For Insulting Her Outfit

This is said to have happened at the Wariyapola bus stand, a popular gathering point in Sri Lanka. The man insulted the young lady for wearing skinny jeans and a blouse with open sleeves and she challenged him. As she got progressively more angry as she spoke, she slapped the guy and kept slapping and hitting him.

Many have said she went overboard in showing her anger, and that calling him out or insulting him back, or at most one slap would have sufficed to teach him a lesson. They point out that the man could have attacked her back, and she's just lucky he took the beat-down like a gentleman.

I say a gentleman wouldn't have insulted a lady in the first place. See the video below and share your thoughts...

I was having a conversation a day before Robin Williams’ suicide with my daughter, Nosa, about Majek Fashek and how I managed him and his career for 6 years (2005-2011) and released his hit album ‘Little Patience’ on my label, November Records.

When she saw visuals of how handsome and vibrant Majek used to look and his recent visuals of his emaciated and scraggly look, she was touched and pained. Especially when I told her that Majek is battling with a form of depression and other ‘spiritual’ stuff he has openly confessed to in some media interviews.
