Accepted in which society? Society at large in whatever country you live in? Frum society at large in whatever country you live in? Your own frum circles in the specific town or neighborhood you live in? Or the society represented by the school your children go to?

Pretty much all of the above
Except the birth control. That should be obligatory for most!
(Another reminder why I am so happy I live in the UK and not USA)

That's interesting that it's "acceptable" to do things that are 100% assur - and d'oraysa according to most halachic opinions. Why? I'm assuming you're referring to people who consider themselves Orthodox? Like they keep Shabbos and Kashrus but not "lo Sikrivu l'galos erva". This is a boundary to prevent Arayos.

No one is knocking anyone. This thread is about things you dislike, that are common/acceptable. There's no wrong answer to this.

Pressure that everyone's home must look like a museum and you can't live.
And everyone judging and looking into your homes.
Working boys don't have a decent opportunity in the shidduch market.
Everyone has to be cookie cutter and if you want to be an individual with your own interests, then you are weird.

Lavish over the top celebrations for lechaim and vort and aufruf and wedding and sheva brachos and shobbos sheva brachos. The materialism is over the top.
Same with bar mitzvahs. Laying tefillin is Israel and Shobbos bar mitzvah and Kiddush and party for the class.

This is an example of judgementalism / stereotyping. Personally I don’t hold by this. But, I get there’s many different types of people out there and won’t judge for it.

Everyone always needing the top or best. We would do well to normalize mediocrity across the board. Life is not the Olympics.

Kollel families on food stamps and other government programs
People not getting legally married for government assistance
People not reporting all of their income
ETA- we’re a kollel family ourselves and don’t believe in government handouts.

We would do well if we focused on doing the best “for us”. What is top for my neighbor may be subpar for me.
