The man behind Abercrombie & Fitch

Mike Jeffries turned a moribund company into a multibillion-dollar brand by selling youth, sex and casual superiority. Not bad for a 61-year-old in flip-flops.

    Another thing that crossed my mind

    is that Jeffries has got to be gay, even if it is only on a subconscious level. I'm not saying that because I'm prejudiced against gays. On the contrary, if he ever publicly came out of the closet, I would gain respect for him. And that would be the only time in my life that I'd ever feel respect towards anything associated with A & F!
