Two observations:
1. Men spend a lot of effort seeking sex
2. Some men choose to use violence to get what they want.

So, assume that rape is not about sex. The question is, if the phenomenon of rape is not about sex, then why don't we see some other behavior where some men use violence to get sex? And if such a behavior did exist, how would we be able to tell it from rape?

That being said, I don't think the mantra of "rape is not about sex" is without merit. For most well adjusted people sex should be an act of love and affection and pleasure. And rape is most certainly not about this kind of sex.
