But you're right, almost every fic I've seen with mai's parents being sexist either implies or states that they are not unusual in this regard. If they are sexist, it's possible to make it because they're old fashioned, or idealogically regressive, or something like that, instead of trying to recast the whole Fire Nation as sexist.
