Of course it had a purpose!!  It served to remind women of their proper place,
waiting at home for their man, the breadwinner and head-of-household, to come
home each night.  One of the cornerstones of new conservative movement.  Bring
back those old values and those problems will go away.

Whether any of this qualifies as "redeeming value" is questionable at best.
(It would seem that much of the so-called adult so-called contemporary
so-called music serves the above function.)
