Isn't a large part of Yue and Sokka's relationship that Sokka actually cares for Yue as her own person and treats her accordingly, unlike her fiancee (I can't be bothered to remember his name).

Sexism as a whole is an important thing throughout many of the episodes in season 1. (The Kyoshi warriors episodes and the siege of the northern water tribe)

It is. But I think a huge part of him treating her like a person is letting go and challenging a lot of traditional values too. I think if he hadnt been able to challange those things in season 1, then by the time they make it to the water tribe, it wouldnt have played out the same. (Its obviously something thats pretty subjective. Not everyone has to have the same perception. And 2 things can be true). This is just my own perception of the relationship.
