Pope Francis | Vatican News | Pope Uses Homophobic Slur | What Does Frociaggine Mean? | G18V

Pope Francis is under fire for using a cuss word to describe homosexual men. According to a report in The Guardian, several Italian media outlets have reported that the pontiff used the term “frociaggine”, which is a vulgar Italian word that roughly translates to “faggotness“. Pope Francis reportedly used the term while reiterating his objection to admitting gay men to Catholic seminaries. The remark was made when the pope said that while it was important to embrace everyone, there was already too much “frociaggine” in some seminaries. The Pope’s purported remark have triggered shock and outrage, especially since he is often deemed too liberal by more conservative elements of the clergy. #popefrancis #lgbt #lgbtq #church #vatican #news18 News18 Mobile App -
