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.

It's not just women. I'd much rather be beaten up than raped. Why that is is an interesting question that's hard to articulate answers to.

Depends. Man or woman doing the raping? Serious question.

Because as a man, being raped by another man would seem to be much worse physically than being beaten up. But this is not exactly the case for a woman being raped. Not that it is pleasurable by any definition, but it is at least kinda natural.

There exists cultures (tribal ones mostly) where rape isn't a 'big deal' when done by opposing tribes in times of war in terms of emotional trauma.

But anyway it is a moot point, cultural or genetic - the inflicted trauma is real. Imagine if you are a man and get raped - for most men that would have an extremely negative impact on their life.

Is the judge insane?

Odds judge or a close female family member had a partner cheat on them with a hooker?

Ever read the Bible? Guess what, back then it wasn't a big deal for jews nor christians. In fact it was even encouraged by God Himself! Oh yes.

Raped by a woman? Not for many men I know. You can't compare a woman being raped by a man to a man being raped by another man.
