“Pope Francis: Men shouldn’t be so macho”
What’s next, is he going to go on an apology tour?

Remember, he’s from a Latin country, so the “macho”
quality may be seen a bit differently.
If so, unfortunately, he might then be applying a local culture worldwide, where it is not relevant.
He’s also never lived in a pluralistic democracy; Argentina has had everything from military rule to Eva.
So while he might be speaking to his life’s experiences, those are not necessarily relevant to the entire world.
But that’s an assumption on my part.

WOW! If anything the entire world is completely lacking in manliness!
We were created after our Maker. We are strong men! We are to be MEN in every sense of the word! That includes listening to the advice of the weaker vessel and loving and respecting women!
MEN need to stand up on our hind legs and ACT LIKE IT!

it’s also assumptive on your part that a oft-touted intelligent, learned man as francis somehow is unable to clearly say exactly what he means. he can pick any number of languages he knows to say it in. i’m sure he can pick the one he feels he can express himself most clearly in.

You gotta be kidding me. The primary characteristic we (gals) like in a man is that of being macho. We do not want a man whose hands are softer than ours, who cannot cook over an open fire, who has no idea how to use a hammer or a gun. I could go on and on.
Sure, I can take care of myself, but I shouldn’t have to. That’s the whole point. Macho is EXACTLY what I want. Nothing less will do. I am not alone in said opinion.

My Savior is Jesus Christ, not this Marxist homosexual loving Jerk.
I feel sad for Catholics who don't know Jesus Christ.

Maybe Pope Francis is hinting that he's really a gay? Why should males must be effeminate? Why can't men be MEN and women be WOMEN? Screw all this LBGT nonsense that affects 2% of the population.
To: cleghornboy
That way more “girly men” will exist providing better opportunity for homo priests to better get to know them.
“Know” them as in the Bible.
What in the hell is this jesuit pope on and on about. Does he want Christians to be pussies? Never discount jesuitical guidance here.

So have we determined if he really said this? Or have we got a FRoman Catholic interpretation yet?
