Earlier this month, President Obama helped out First Lady Michelle Obama in delivering Toys for Tots, and the important job of sorting those toys. That's where he truly shined, making sure that girls weren't left out.

Putting a basketball in a girls' bin, he said "I just wanna make sure some girls play some ball." When someone in the crowd asked why he put Legos in the girls' bin, because girls might not like Legos, he responded "Girls don't like toys?" And then:

"T-Ball? Girls like T-Ball. I'm just trying to break down these gender stereotypes."

On behalf of all those girls getting these gifts this Christmas, thanks Mr. President.
