Well on second thought! ...you got a strong point there as I recall a male friend sharing just as your gif shows....Born and raised catholic the nuns turned him off to his church so as an adult he left and went to a Protestant Church and was dumbfounded the love he saw and acceptance ...without anyone beating him over the head.
