Dude, Sokka's sexism was not even a plot point and it was touched upon BARELY in two episodes in the animated series. And they did touch on it in the show when he was mansplaining how to throw his boomerang and Suki showed him up.
It's the entire plot point of the Kyoshi Warriors. Take out Sokka's sexism and there's no need for a group of female warriors. Nothing would have been lost from the episode that pushed Aang further along his path.
How Netflix addressed it was about Sokka feeling inadequate as a man and seeing all these women who could do the things he wished he could. So he shyly and politely asked to be taught.
It's a good change.
