Blaming his naivety, the 49-year-old actor said the fact that people like Weinstein existed in the world filled him with bewilderment.
"The whole situation has been bizarre for me... As I'm hearing these things people would do like... I just don't know who would do (something) like that!
"And I don't know, I'm naive but (you) schedule a meeting with someone and the person shows up and like you're in a bathrobe! I just don't know those guys. I have male friends but no..." Smith said in a group interview.
As a father to teenage daughter, Willow, Smith raised concern over women safety and security in these times.
"My 17-year-old daughter, who grew up with men she trusts and really does not even comprehend the predatory idea," he added.
