Usually no. Kids around that age frequently take baths together. The number one issue is: "Is you son developing a sense of modesty or privacy?"
It's usually around this age (6-8) that a kid will develop a sense of modesty which should be supported. If he has not shown interest in "being private" then it should be ok. Also be prepared for questions about why his body is different than his sisters. (Keep the answers simple and appropriate to his level of understanding).
At some point in the future, it should become appearent that he wants more control over his own body and how / when it is shown to others.

I see nothing wrong with it at all. In fact I think it can be beneficial for them to be around other children and become comfortable in the other sex. Taking a bath should not have any sexual implications. However, it could lead to some questions which you might have to answer.

The 6yr old should be old enough to notice the differences between he and she. It could lead to questions. Be ready to answer them.

i be attentive to what you imply, besides the fact that i do no longer think of your hypothesis is physically powerful. it ought to be that sons who pee whilst their mothers spank them are the sons of petite women human beings because of the fact they are greater apprehensive of their mothers than the sons of extensive women human beings (consistent with possibility let's imagine for a correlation reason; consistent with possibility small women human beings overassert themselves as disciplinarians) and so as this is the relationship of reason and result, and extremely no longer likely it quite is a sexual element. in all probability a correlation between concern and embarassment with admire to the different strikes of the mothers, no longer jointly with the spankings. Who spanks 6 365 days olds at the instant in any case? Who spanks in any respect? There are lots greater effective, risk-free and established the thank you to instruct a toddler top from incorrect, and spanking isn't considered one of them.

Is it inappropriate? My opinion is yes, mostly because the boy will remember.

It's fine until they start noticing the difference. If it bothers you, then they will pick up on it and be bothered without knowing why. So if it bothers you, then they shouldn't.
My daughters were 10 when they started changing their brother's diapers.

no. neither of them are old enough to know any better. in a couple years though, i'd suggest that they take seperate baths.
