I understand this is a fantasy world etc., but even so, when I read things I always relate it to how I would react, so that's why I saw it as rape.  She was manipulative and creepy (in my mind) and if a guy did that to me I would feel violated.

I was glad when that story line ended because Tylin creeped me out and made the Mat parts a little less fun for me because it didn't feel like a healthy or fun relationship to me. 

Opinions of things like this vary a lot in our world too, so it makes sense we don't all agree. 

For some reason i think theres a difference between a guy being aggressive and a girl being aggressive. I can see how it could make you uncomfortable to picture yourself in mats situation but he is a guy, it's not relay the same thing.

Slightly off suptopic but does girls seem to be more on the side of Mat being raped while guys find it easier to accept an aggressive woman taking the initiative and just sees it as an interesting encounter for mat?
