Not all Libra men are like this.However, Libras who fail to keep their scales balanced can indulge themselves in ways that aren't healthy, including with drink. Many (if not most) Libras also do not like to sweat which can translate into laziness (the physical kind anyway). Generally speaking, however, Libras tend to work in spurts, with a lot of energy that then collapses suddenly (a cycle that repeats). And a Libra typically needs harmony to stay balanced, or failing that they need a place they can retreat to until they feel better that they can use without apology...otherwise their scales are too off kilter and they become deranged. And too much socializing is as unhealthy for a Libra as too little. I would guess your friend is lacking this essential harmony.
And a guy in his 40s being into older teenagers and women in their early 20s seems a common trait for many men that age...heck, of all ages. However, Libra is usually tactful enough not to be obnoxious about it. I would guess that this is more the alcohol talking or he's hanging around a crowd (can include online) that provides bad examples for him (and many men would provide such a bad example).
The best way to tell a Libra to stop is privately and quietly. They generally wish to avoid upsetting people (and really want to be liked by as many people as possible). In fact, it might be wise to advise him not to apologize to those he's harassed (unless you think they'd appreciate it, but be advised Libra doesn't always make good apologies given their style) as he just might rather than letting the awkwardness pass as painlessly as possible. Generally speaking Libra responds best to calm discussion. However, if he tries to argue then just set firm boundaries as clearly and calmly as possible. Naturally it's a bad time to do this if his breath smells of alcohol (in which case best to send him away until he's sober).
One last thing: some people who drink too much over many years seem to suffer noticeable brain damage to me so that they lack clear thinking and impulse control even when sober (similar to how people who smoke too much pot do). It could be a neurological problem (brain damage from too much alcohol abuse) at this point that can't be fixed in which case you've got a hard choice to make.
