At the end, this hurt the [G.I.] fathers: The Boomer kids saw their mothers doing housework (and these mothers were the last generation of housewives who didn't have vacuum cleaners, washing machines etc. At least not all the time.). But the Boomers never saw their fathers at work.
This must have contributed to the Boomers rebelling against their fathers, and supporting feminism.
Despite the fact that many male feminists were crooks of the worst kind. Like Sol Wachtler who helped making rape during marriage a crime (until then, wives had the duty to agree with sex), and later harassed a woman himself. Fucking hypocrite.
To be totally honest, most Boomer kids rarely hung with their mothers either. We tended to be feral children: sent out to play until dinner time.
