Sister Clarice was like the "head" wife in a marriage that had at least 1 other wife and 2 husbands. Lacy was a little unfamiliar with the concept, but not only was she a teenager but her reaction was more of a "Oh I've heard about this but it's kind of exotic to me". I believe she mentioned that she'd known children at school who came from poly families. None of the adults seemed awkward with Clarice's family, though, so I hazard that it was untraditional but not "weird".
That being said, it was a monotheist thing, at least as far as we could see on the show... And also, societies often regress to a conservative state after a huge crisis. My guess would be that what we saw in Caprica the show was the liberal state of the planet/colonies, and that after the Cylon war things tightened up a bit. However, it was only one generation back, so I don't think K/S/L would face a "You're doing WHAT???" reaction...more of a "uh...okay >_>" one.
