This does seem a bit of a hypocrisy when I hear of his reaction to Samba's misdeeds... Just a thought.

Well abduction isn't good. But that wasn't uncommon then. It was an accepted form of marriage. Post marriage the girls were into their husbands, were raised to think that the husband will and can do what they want

This can not be compared to the r**e attempt towards an unmarried maiden

With Yamuna, Balram's behavior is clear. Krishna later marries her.

Just read the Jambavati episode from Harivamsa and put 2 and 2 together.

Krishna had a habit of rescuing women is all I'll say.
