I'll throw in an anecdote: I didn't know stay-at-home parents were a thing until embarrassingly late. Like mid- to late-teens. Both my parents worked, all _their_ parents worked, and all my friends parents worked. The only exposure I had to the concept of homemakers was very tangentially on tv, where I assumed the mothers were home because they took the day off. The general attitude of everyone involved in my life was that anyone who stayed at home after the children were old enough to attend school was lazy and mooching off their spouse. Not that that is true, but to directly answer your question: yes, there are people who don't value homemakers.
