Well, that depends what you mean. I certainly don’t think it’s arrogant to say that it’s pathological for someone to be sexually attracted to a child. I can think of corner cases when someone much older and someone much younger actually have a workable relationship, but they’re corner cases.
And Dante’s love for Beatrice was definitely bizarre as hell, given that he only ever saw her twice in his life, and the first time she was 8. It wasn’t really based on her as a person.
