The reason females evolved such an extreme aversion to nonconsensual sex is because of how it harms their reproductive success. If a female is impregnated by a male of poor genetic quality, then she suffers an opportunity cost for at least the next 9 months, where she will be unable to mate with a male of good genetic quality if one comes along. Males didn't evolve this aversion to rape because males have no such opportunity cost; males can impregnate a female and go on to impregnate another within an hour.
The harm to reproductive success that males do suffer is female sexual rejection. For a male to go 9 months without a single female choosing to have sex with him is as harmful to his reproductive success as rape is to a female's. Females didn't evolve this aversion because it was never necessary; all females can find a male to mate with instantaneously, as males are not choosy.
Thus, it makes sense that we see so much suffering in men who endure extended periods of sexlessness; they are the male equivalent of female rape victims. And given that many men endure sexlessness for far longer than 9 months, it follows that the trauma they are caused is far greater than that of a woman who has suffered a single rape.
I can attest to this as 29 year old virgin who has endured 15+ years of unrequited sexual desire, that the level of anguish I experience is approximately equivalent to that of a woman who has been raped 20 or so times.
Nobody can truthfully object to this as if you gave men the option to live 15 years without sex or endure a single rape, the latter is the obvious choice to 99% of men. The 1% of men who'll proudly proclaim that they're fine living without sex are anomalies; no different to the minority of women who feel indifferent about their rape.
