No doubting America has improved a lot, particularly in terms of rights on a federal level now - but its nowhere near a lot of the countries that are "up there" in terms of society, so no, it shouldn't. Places like Spain don't have conservatives in Alabama that would puke if they saw two gays kissing - that drags you down.
Places like Norway and Iceland: they are free of Marco Rubio's, Ted Cruz's, and that mentality that people genuinely share. Even if some Republicans are coming around to the idea of gay marriage because their hand was forced by the Supreme Court - it still doesn't change the mentality of the millions of homophobes, particularly in the south.
