I see it as one person getting sexual pleasure from hurting and degrading someone else. It’s a sadistic act, at core.
Maybe that too, but it is reproductive behavior. There are parallels in the animal kingdom. Ducks, orangutans, etc. males force themselves on females and that’s one of their ways of bringing forth the next generation. Not pretty, but much of Animal Kingdom isn’t.
