In the intro text of TNG it isn't "where no MAN has gone before" anymore, but "where no ONE has gone before".

Has there ever been an official explanation why the text was changed? My initial suspicion is that it's either the result of trying to avoid allegations of sexism or because the creators of the show themselves perceived the phrase as sexist.
