* ValuesDissonance: While Calixto is presumably meant to be at least somewhat sympathetic (and his love for Melibea is generally portrayed as genuine) his response to her rejection of him is to ''hire a witch to cast a magic spell on her which will make her love him'' (and want to have sex with him).
