Pope Francis has said that sexual pleasure is "a gift from God" that should be "disciplined with patience."
He also warned against pornography, which he said brought "satisfaction without relationship" and could lead to addiction.
His Vatican address was part of a series of sermons on vices and virtues, focused on what the Pope called "the demon of lust".
It followed criticism by conservative Catholics of his new head of doctrine.
Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, who was appointed last July, came under fire for a book he wrote and published in the late 1990s entitled Mystical Passion: Spirituality and Sensuality.

Those crazy Catholics and the Vatican - holy shit what a bunch of crazy stuff there. It is my personal belief that the Vatican was infiltrated by Satanists a long time ago. I am a recovering catholic.
