Pope told by student to stop using anti-LGBTQ language
bbc.com
Pope Francis has been told by a Filipino Catholic university student to "stop using offensive language" against LGBTQ people.
Slurs cause "immense pain", Jack Lorenz Acebedo Rivero said during an online video panel with other Catholic university students and the pope.
His comments come after reports that the Pope used extremely offensive language against gay men during a closed-door meeting last month with bishops.
He later apologised to those who were "hurt" and the Vatican said he did not mean to offend anyone.
The Pope reportedly said gay men should not be allowed to train for the priesthood, adding there was already an air of frociaggine, which translates as a highly offensive slur.

I was not aware, nice, ty.
