The Sexist: Sex and Gender in the District

Dov Charney Still Crazy, Sexy, Uncool

Conde Nast Portfolio gives notorious sex addict and workers’ rights advocate American Apparel CEO Dov Charney the profile treatment in its November issue. My favorite anecdote:

This sexual aura has cut both ways for American Apparel. Charney has made his name in part through controversy. He once famously masturbated in front of a female journalist. Charney says the reporter, for the now-defunct Jane, took the masturbation out of context. “I was a younger man,” he says, wearily. “The lines were blurred between paramour and reporter.” The reporter has said that her tape recorder or notebook was in full view at all times and that the relationship was professional.

There are seven pages of this.
