Social media is going nuts over Rich Cohen's cover profile of Margot Robbie in the latest issue of Vanity Fair - and not in a good way.

Many are calling it "sexist," and "creepy," and are both confused and outraged by the language used to describe the 26-year-old "Wolf of Wall Street" and "Tarzan" actress.

• "I don't remember what she was wearing, but it was simple, her hair combed around those painfully blue eyes. We sat in the corner. She looked at me and smiled."
