“To express oneself sexually is something rich,” he said. “Anything that diminishes a true sexual expression diminishes you as well, it renders you partial, and it diminishes that richness. Sex has a dynamic of its own. It exists for a reason. It’s an expression of love.”
He emphasized that not all sexual activity should be described as “ugly” and that the church’s teaching on sex “is still in diapers.” But the most surprising comments came when the young people explained Tinder to the pontiff and asked his thoughts on using the app to date. “It’s normal,” he said. “Young people have that eagerness to meet each other, and that’s very good.”
It’s unclear if the pope knows of Tinder’s reputation as the more casual dating app; His Holiness has not yet fielded questions about Bumble or Hinge. But the general sentiment he expresses in the doc fits with his past statements: The popewants young people to get married and start families.
