These things are entirely psychological to those against them. They have NO REAL EFFECT on society.

And the deterioration of the family structure was caused by the changing of the divorce process. Many years ago it was very difficult to get a divorce, so couples just stayed together unhappy for 30, 40, 50 years. One could argue that was a much worse situation to be in than what we see today.
