do you believe in domestic partnership?

I just noticed that this is often portrayed on tv. Rory and Logan, Lorelei and Luke live together in Gilmore Girls. Meredith and Derek live together in Grey's Anatomy. They make it look like it's accepted and easy. Is it? or is it just part of american culture? I think tv shows should not be relaying that kind of message. Im sure it's not easy to live with that kind of instability and also the risk of contracting STDs and getting pregnant.
