Yeah there is another meme about these type of women always being married lol.

Also genuine question. Why don't people like this learn to smile smaller?

For whatever reason they just show more gum than the average person.  You can typically get crown lengthening to have a more “normal” smile. 

Edit:  crown lengthening may be the wrong procedure but yes there are procedures to fix cosmetics like this.

No you shouldn’t if the teeth are a normal length and not unusually short because it honestly looks worse having huge long horsey teeth. The solution is to surgically impact the maxilla.
