Hearing papal take on sex, I hold things together (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rubber band

'i hold things together' is the definition.
(rubber bands keep separate items together)

'hearing papal take on sex' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'take' could be 'be' (being is a kind of taking) and 'be' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

(Other definitions for rubber band that I've seen before include "Elasticated loop" , "Office item" , "Stretchy fastener" , "that should fit tightly" , "Some bridge players" .)
