Yea, i realized that Sokka could obviously not be a squib right after i posted that reply, but if we are to continue this comparison, he couldn't be a muggle either because muggles don't (usually) know about magic and everyone in the Avatar world knows about bending. As for Katara's waterbending, if bending is controlled by genetics, then I feel like it is much more likely that Katara simply had the right genotype (and phenotype i guess) for waterbending rather than teaching herself how to bend.
