I also think that Snape mind raped Harry on a regular basis - that is what to me Legilimency is and to me there are plenty of hints in the book that Snape legilimenced Harry when he had no idea that Snape poked around in his mind.

Certainly.

 Harry consented, and, after the

Alla:

In the Dumbledore approved legilimency lessons Harry certainly consented.  I would not call those lessons an analogy to what I consider a mind rape, just usual Snape's abuse. I  had several other accidents in mind, when Harry *thought* that Snape was reading his mind. I do not remember him exhibiting anything remotely resembling consent in those accidents. You may of course argue that Harry was imagining things. I think he was not imagining anything and Snape was reading his thoughts without his consent. I think Dumbledore  is guilty of that too by the way, on several occassions.
