One of the largest changes I know of was women in the workforce. Before WWII, most women stayed in the home and didn't have outside jobs, but while their husbands were gone to fight the war, many women had to find jobs to support themselves and their family. After the war ended, many women chose to continue working because they liked the independence and of course, the money.
Following World War II, many changes took place in American society. Namely, women refused to go back to being simply housewives after spending the war working. They enjoyed the freedom of working outside the home too much to give it up.
American society changed in a positive way, becoming a supernation and a global power. After World War II the US realized that they could no longer remain isolated and that for them to prosper they must be engaged and active in the global community. Post WWII was the baby boom which led to a growing population for the states and the G.I. bill which helped war veterans re-enter society. Because of this bill more people were encouraged and were able to seek higher-education.America's thought that it was their mandate to curtail the spread of communism, such ideas led to the formation of NATO, ring of influence disputes in Germany, Vietnam, Korea, and Afghanistan, and also the Space Race. Society as a whole saw rising female workers and America became a family-oriented nation.
War is a powerful instrument of social and economic change.
When WWII began, the United States attempted to remain neutral because the country was dealing with a severe economic depression and did not want to repeat WWI. However, little did America know that the war was a powerful tool that brought about significant social and economic changes, such as the end of the Great Depression, the beginning of the Women's Movement, and the start of other race movements.
When the men came home from the war they had the GI bill to go to school and to get home loans, so many did just that. They built new factories, became doctors, teachers, lawyers, and invented new things. They got married and bought houses in the new suburbs that were being sold. The car dealers had new models of cars to sell since all the metal had gone to war production and they bought the new cars to use to go to work from suburbs. Freeways had to be built to take them from work to home and back. New inventions like the TV changed how people saw the world and how they saw each other. The war was a dark time so Americans were ready to dress in new more colorful styles and to go out to movies and ball games. Rock and roll began and movies were changing fashions. The world you see today reflects all of the changes that happened after WW2.

Yes, some, but their plight was secondary to the war effort. While proving themselves as good citizens, employees and soldiers, changes for them were very slow.
