No, society does have morals too, which are more important that the individual morality. Why? Because moral values are the standards of good and evil, which govern an individual’s behavior and choices.
It's interesting to see someone contradict themselves so fast and not even realize it.
Individual’s morals may derive from society and government, religion, or self.
They never derive from society, and I only know of one person who derives them from government (and he has other mental issues).
But, not only are such couples more plentiful, they are also more accepted by other individuals in our society.
You're confusing "society" with a real thing. The people who make up society have changed, thus your view of "society" is now different, but "society" itself has not changed. Couples living together are not "more accepted", there are more individuals who accept it now than there were before. Do you see the distinction?
