One change I've seen between my parents generation and my generation: In my parents generation, stay at home moms would primarily socialize during the day. Working dads would, in turn, socialize after work with co-workers or male friends who, generally, also worked in New York City. In my generation, the stay at home moms socialize a lot more in the evenings and it's expected that the working dad be around to do the evening kid time. Babysitters are an option but it seems frowned upon if they are used too often. This could also be a factor of having small children as friends who have older children seem to go out much more often given that the kids (usually 13+) can take care of themselves.
