President Obama is what many would call a laid back sort of guy, he can easily be found just shooting hoops with some friends and associates, but many criticize this sort of fun, saying that Obama is constantly in the company of males, not only when playing basketball, but also when making decisions.
Despite the fact that Obama has many women in positions of power and the gender split of power is technically 50/50 critics still complain that women are not as visible and while they technically hold positions of power the public doesn't get to see them make decisions or even talking to the President and it appears as though the most important sectors of the white house such as economics and national security are a boys club only.
While some people feel this way others reget the idea that there is any sort of sexism in the white house and admit that it is natural for the president to bond with people he works with in different ways.
