Youcat commented through CCC – Question n. 400 – Part I.
(Youcat
answer) God created man as male and female. He created them for each other and
for love. He created them with erotic desires and the ability to experience
physical pleasure. He created them to transmit life.
A deepening through CCC
(CCC 2392)
"Love is the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being"
(FC 11).
Reflecting and meditating
(Youcat comment) Being a man or being a woman is very deeply
imprinted on the individual human person; it is a different way of feeling, a
different way of loving, a different calling with respect to children, another
way of believing. Because he intended that they should be there for each other
and complement one another in love, God made man and woman different. That is
why man and woman attract each other sexually and intellectually. When a
husband and wife express their love for each other in bodily union, their love
finds its deepest sensual expression. Just as God is creative in his love, so
too man can be creative in love and give life to children.
(CCC Comment)
(CCC 2332) Sexuality affects all aspects of the
human person in the unity of his body and soul. It especially concerns
affectivity, the capacity to love and to procreate, and in a more general way
the aptitude for forming bonds of communion with others. (CCC 2335) Each of the two sexes is an image of the power and tenderness of
God, with equal dignity though in a different way. the union of man and woman
in marriage is a way of imitating in the flesh the Creator's generosity and
fecundity: "Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves
to his wife, and they become one flesh." All human generations proceed
from this union.(Cf. Gen 4:1-2,
25-26; 5:1)
