I've always understood the two to be intertwined: sexuality and spirituality. That never changed.

We need a fundamental change of mindset with regards to the way we speak and behave about sex and sexuality. Boys and men have a particularly critical role in this regard, changing the chauvinist and demeaning ways sexuality and women were traditionally dealt with in both our actions and speaking.

I think that sexuality is only attractive when it's natural and spontaneous.

We are all born sexual creatures, thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift.

Elton John, he's an extraordinary person, a distinguished musician. And millions of our people sincerely love him, regardless of his sexual orientation.
