Is it not possible that Antolini's gesture is completely unsexual and innocent
in itself, an act of humanity that does nothing but illustrate the depth of
Holden's confusion? Holden is genuinely unloved and unprepared. Naturally, he
would react as he did.

And Seymour's visit with Sybil: unsexual and innocent. X 'n' Esme: unsexual
and innocent.
Just my opinion, of course. I don't think I'd use the word "condecending" in
describing either of the situations. I think X and Seymour treat their
conversation partners with respect and as equals.
