I think the real victim in this is Smith's gf. I'd like to comfort her.
You, me, and most of Volnation lol
There's a line you don't cross. Admire a person for being smart, or beautiful, or witty, or whatever positive trait you choose to concentrate on, that's all fine and perfectly acceptable (except to rabid feminists, sometimes).
Seriously, when did American parents and community leaders stop teaching these basic values to succeeding generations?
No, and no.
Emphatically, no.
Come on, you two, this is creepy behavior.

But the step from appreciation to expressing a desire to do something about it, that's flat-out creepy.
If your internal values system can't figure this out for you, try this trick: imagine a bunch of guys saying the same about your mom (or dad), or teenage sister (or brother), or grandparent.
If it seems creepy to you then, you can bet it's creepy to those who care about the girl you're talking about that way.

If one of my female family members dressed like she does, and posted the pics on social media, it would be hard for me to be angry at a benign comment like the two posters made. I'm not judging her for it, but the other two did nothing wrong.
So... What you're saying is... She is asking for it, because of how she dresses.
Pro tip: In 2017, don't say that without the mask of anonymity.
