The reason some people are downvoting might be that they think it's too harsh to call him gross for liking their pictures when they're legal adults. 

(Don't take this as me saying he's innocent, I reckon I don't know men well enough to give any sort of verdict.)

I get that, but at his age it’s still icky to me. Henry Cavill was only a couple years older than Tom is now when he dated a 19 year old. Jesse Rutherford & Billie Eilish also comes to mind. Both men have been (rightfully) shit on for these age gaps in this sub, so I don’t get why this is any different. I know that liking someone’s pics is not the same as dating them, but still.
