English term or phrase: on the shape of
Buenas tardes:
Tengo un texto que dice:
"Any discuussion of modern-day couples and sexuality would be wrong-headed if it did not recognize feminism's enourmous influence **on the shape of** American family style."

En primer lugar, no encontré en ningún lado "on the shape", sino "in the shape", por lo cual me pregunto si no es un error. De todas maneras, me gustaría saber qué entienden ustedes por "on the shape of American family style".
¡Muchas gracias por su ayuda!
