Is it cheating to use a rhyming dictionary?

I most certainly do not think it is cheating to use a rhyming dictionary. Rhyming dictionaries throw up all kinds of extraordinary surprises, because in English we do not always spell the same sounds in the same way, like making 'u' sounds - I can think the use of 'u' as in "you". So you are, in a way, constantly surprised by what words rhyme. And so allow yourself that luxury of flicking over pages of the rhyming dictionary. I have never thought that together and weather rhyme, but of course they do.
