Why did emphasis on gender roles re-emerged after World War II?

cause they said women cant fight in war, and they had to stay home with kids (not sure if this is right sorry)

Explanation:

during the war- With men away to serve in the military and demands for war material increasing, manufacturing jobs opened up to women and upped their earning power. Yet women's employment was only encouraged as long as the war was on. Once the war was over, federal and civilian policies replaced women workers with men.
