This guy a jerk or what?
My father invited my stepmom's family into dinner at a restaurant. My sister was supposed to meet her friend so my father asked her if she can bring her friend along to the dinner. I picked up both my sister and her friend and went to the dinner.
I was sitting next to me father, my sister next to me and then her friend. My stepmom's brother suddenly asked me and my sister and I quote "that beautiful hot girl over there is your relative?" I was shocked, I acted like I didn't hear him properly and he repeated the same question.
Might sound innocent. But our family is very conservative and so is my sister's friend. Not to mention this dude's wife was sitting right next him and when I looked at her she seemed clearly upset. It was like a straight flirt in our view.
My sister's friend was very upset as well and I heard her whisper to my sister how rude this guy is. She kept on calling her brothers to come pick her up. But they weren't available so she asked me if I can drop her home so I did. had to leave early and not until it was at an appropriate time. My father didn't object, he heard the whole thing.
Is this guy a jerk or what. This has upset me. I don't think this is an appropriate behavior in the present of a conservative family, and especially not in front of his wife sitting right next to him.
The majority of the trip I had to hear my sister and her friend complain about his rudeness.
Do you think it was inappropriate or are we overreacting?

Yes, he was incredibly rude, and YES, you were overreacting. You were overreacting, because, unfortunately, the guy's behavior is pretty common these days, and, if you are going to fume every time some jerk makes such comments, you are going to be fuming for the rest of your life. I am like you -- very proper, conservative, reserved. However, it seems like, unlike you, I have had many experiences with such low class behavior, and have learned to deal with it effectively. In such a situation, I would have either humiliated the jerk then and there with a loud "I BEG YOUR PARDON", or would have cornered him privately and given him a good lecture about how leering at other women, and making sexually aggressive comments about them, is not acceptable in polite society, particularly NOT with the wife in earshot.
This is not to say that you have to tolerate such behavior. The guy has proven himself a vulgar lout, so ensure that your and your family's contact with him is kept to a bare minimum.
Apologize profusely to the friend, and assure her he has been dealt with.
