Default mast -rake

I know that if you rake your mast a little to the aft it lets head in to the
wind close hauled a point or two.All I have ever heard is that if your mast
is raked towards the bow it gives you a weather helm .
Does it do any thing else?
The reason I ask is cause I have one like that
