or you fail to see how that could be developed through natural selection?

Except that we don't see this kind of behaviour in other animals. Most female animals don't like being raped, but they don't make such a big fuzz about it after it's done.

In fact we don't even see this behaviour towards rape in all of human culture...

Hell, just go back a couple centuries in human history (or better yet, millenia), and you'll see quite a different picture.

Here are my thoughts. In order to birth fit offspring, a woman has to be very selective with who they have sex with. This means that they have to be extremely protective of themselves. Having a terrible and seemingly disproportionately large emotional reaction to being raped seems a likely byproduct of that.
