While I agree that the guy is being somewhat of an open douche, the first thing that came to my mind is that this isn't any different from our current education system.
Replace "thin and beautiful people" with "intelligent and educated people" and "wear our clothing" with "come to our school."
There is a reason why MIT is more revered then come community college—MIT caters to incredibly smart people.
You see someone wearing an A&F shirt and say, "Hmm, he is attractive." You find someone is going to Princeton and say, "Hmm, he is smart."
It just seems like the way we feel about body image/the way society has pressured people makes this similarity a little less visible.
Edit: BTW, this is coming from a person who abhors the brand and would rather go naked than wear it.
